Review - :
Released on {@Metal Blade} in 1996, {^Vile} is the first {$Cannibal Corpse} recording to feature vocalist {$George "Corpsegrinder" Fisher}. The band had built up a considerable following within the {\death metal} community, and that success continued as {$Fisher} brought a vocal dynamism and character that livened up the band's six-year-old sound. {$Fisher}'s ability to match the musical intensity and rhythm of {^Vile}'s more complicated assemblages of riffs created a more sophisticated yet equally tortuous essence. Both the album art and song titles -- while gruesome to the extreme -- were somewhat toned down when compared to earlier {$Cannibal Corpse} efforts. The band members might have been put off by so many accusations of novelty, and intent on proving their worth as musicians. {^Vile} demonstrates a commitment to musical growth: Tracks like {&"Devoured by Vermin"} and {&"Bloodlands"} feature more complex, focused, and just plain interesting musical ideas as well as precise execution. Fans of {\death metal} who haven't yet discovered {$Cannibal Corpse} would be wise to give {^Vile} an open-minded listen, in order to understand how this group has managed to pull off thousands of successful shows and maintain such a rabid following. [A Japanese version added a bonus track.] ~ Vincent Jeffries, All Music Guide
