Gutworm set about the metal underground, taking their polished, contemporary blasts of riff-laden death/grind fury onto stages with Morbid Angel, Nile, The Haunted and Testament, as well as hitting the extreme metal festival circuit in the US – mostly before even having been looked at by anything as crass as a record label. After flirting with major league metal label SPV, they reached an accord with Anticulture to release their debut full-length, the critically acclaimed ‘Ruin The Memory’. Four years later and it’s time for a fresh blasphemy in the form of ‘Disfigured Narcissus’, recorded by Greg Chandler of Northern doomsters Esoteric and mastered by Russ Russell whose previous studio credits include Dimmu Borgir and Napalm Death.
