Houston, Texas-based masters of absolute brutality are back with their sophomore beast, out-slamming, out-blasting and utterly eviscerating anyone who crosses their path of gore and destruction.

When Houston, Texas-based Brutal Death Metal brigade Stabbing came together in 2021, the goals were simple. “We were really just having fun and wanted to emulate the style of the bands we really liked,” said frontwoman Bridget Lynch. “Old school 90’s and early 2000’s Brutal Death Metal bands like Disgorge, Deeds of Flesh, stuff like that.” Fast forward to 2026 and the indomitable Bridget alongside Marvin Ruiz on the guitars, Matt Day on  bass, and Aron Hetsko on drums are ready to pulverize everything and everyone who dares to cross their path with their sophomore beast, entitled Eon of Obscenity, the follow-up to their 2022 crushing debut Extirpated Mortal Process. Recorded by Ben Gott and mixed and mastered by Chris Kritikos at Southwing Audio, and displaying a brutally classic artwork by Rudi Yanto of Gorging Suicide, the visceral Eon of Obscenity out-slams, out-blasts and utterly eviscerates their debut album and basically their competition, with Bridget taking her spot as one of the genre’s most powerful and distinct voices.

Get ready to be absolutely pulverized by Stabbing right from the very first second in Rotting Eternal, with Bridget proving why she has become a reference in deep guttural. In other words, it’s Brutal Death Metal at its finest (and goriest), which also applies to Inhuman Torture Chamber, where she keeps barking the song’s Stygian lyrics rabidly (“Mercilessly beaten to a wet pulp / Violently reduced into a lesser form / Vehemently smashing and degrading / Deeper fall into a state of catatonia”) while her bandmates crush our spinal cords with their undisputed heaviness. Aron sounds like a machine gun out of control in Masticate the Subdued, adding an extra dosage of total carnage and chaos to the band’s already putrid sounds, whereas the title-track Eon of Obscenity perfectly depicts what Stabbing are all about, a ruthless, demented overdose of sheer brutality where the riffage by Marvin sounds heavy, caustic and demonic. And in Reborn to Kill Once More, as expected, Bridget vomits the song’s infernal words on our damned faces mercilessly in another blast of Brutal Death Metal.

There’s still a lot more fuel to be burned by Stabbing in the name of extreme music, starting with the short and sweet instrumental interlude Ruminations, setting the stage for the band to kill us all with Nauseating Composition, featuring Ricky Myers of Suffocation. Moreover, Aron sounds even more demented on drums, offering Bridget and Ricky exactly what they need to bark like two monstrous entities. If you think Bridget can’t sound even more inhumane, think again, as she reaches a whole new level of dementia with her guttural in Their Melted Remains, accompanied by the venomous axes by Marvin and Matt. Then we have Sonoluminescent Hemoglobinopathy, and if you don’t know, “sonoluminescent” is the emission of light from imploding bubbles in a liquid when excited by sound, while “hemoglobinopathy” is an inherited blood disorder where the body makes abnormal hemoglobin or doesn’t make enough of it. Put these two words together, and there you have the epitome of Brutal Death Metal. When you reach the last part of the album with Symphony of Absurdity, you know you’re in front of something special (aka the revamping of Brutal Death Metal), with Bridget once again stealing the show with her cadaverous guttural madness, flowing into Sinking Into Catatonic Reality, where inspired by all giants of the genre the quartet concludes the album on the most violent note imaginable.

Exceeding the term “Brutal Death Metal” with their undisputed violence and gore, Stabbing have plundered the crypts of claustrophobia and darkness, only to surface with Eon of
Obscenity, a benchmark for modern Death Metal. “It’s just more extreme,” commented Bridget. “It’s everything that’s extreme about death metal, just taken a little bit further. The vocals. The drums. The riffs. It’s just faster and more boundary-pushing.” Having said that, I bet you’re dying to put your hands on Eon of Obscenity, and in order to do that simply go to the band’s own BandCamp, or grab a copy of the album from the Century Media Records webstore as  a CD or as a stunning neon-violet LP, and don’t forget to also follow those masters of absolute violence and gore on Facebook and on Instagram, keeping an eye on their breathtaking live concerts, and to stream their putrid creations on Spotify. Bridget and the boys are ready to join the new army of brutality formed of bands like Frozen Soul and PeelingFlesh with their newborn spawn, aiming at global domination and, of course, being more than eager to destroy your frail bodies with their undisputed, first-class Brutal Death Metal magic.
