Skinlab Disembody The New Flesh Rar

There are few things more offensive than a lazy band playing a lazy style of music and passing it off as something great, but one of the contenders is a band that does the same thing in a 'me too!' Fashion with zero accounting for subtlety. Thus stands the issue of Skinlab, arguably the most overt of trend-hoppers in the late 90s groove metal scene, or in simpler terms, the gimp sidekicks of Machine Head. It could have been a running joke in metal circles that Skinlab does what Machine Head did a couple years ago, but sadly there was a sizable collection of people out there at the time who actually liked this crap, so it most likely was not. However, some times being behind the curve can be a saving grace of sorts, and that proves to be the case, ironically enough, with this band's redundant as hell second excursion into the muddy waters of the 90s Disembody: The New Flesh, as it opts to reach back a couple years into the past rather than stay with the times.

If this band's extremely boring debut could be likened to a poor man's Burn My Eyes, this album could be seen as an equally competent knockoff of The More Things Change., all but to a tee. The usual assortment of extremely banal 2-3 note chugging fragments of a groove riff drone on for way too long, accompanied by a variety of Anal Cunt influenced screaming/vomiting and piss poor Layne Staley worship, to speak nothing for the grating whispered sections. Sometimes there are hints of an outright Korn influence (particularly on 'Second Skin: New Flesh') that is rendered slightly more metallic by the guitars not being as muddy, but are equally as lazy and redundant.
But occasionally things pick up a bit in speed and almost take on something comparable to the short-lived Nailbomb project, minus a lot of the effectiveness. A few key moments on 'Breathe' and 'Know Your Enemies' actually feel like they could break into something interesting, but are largely boxed into a slightly more up tempo version of the same repetitive drudgery.
Perhaps the biggest contrast that this album shares both with its predecessor and its object of inspiration is a slightly greater degree of attempted ambition, though it generally results in purposeless meandering rather than anything that could hope to captivate. The incredibly drawn out and droning ballad 'I Name My Pain' seems like an attempt to ape ideas off of Nevermore's approach to a haunting/melancholy interlude, but replaces the nails-on-a-chalkboard bellowing with an even more annoying whispered voice-over that renders this thing wholly revolting whenever it occurs. There is a similar set of droning, semi-industrial noise chasing the lazy down-tempo Machine Head impersonator 'Scapegoat', not to mention a heap of messy notes under the guise of a guitar solo section. That's actually the one curious thing about this plodding mess of half-ideas, there are several attempts at guitar solos that are generally out of place, almost as if Scott Sargeant had an involuntary flashback to his brief stint with Laaz Rockit that never fully came into focus. One of the most not sought after honors that an album can achieve is the dreaded 'it's not as terrible as X album', especially when that includes the rest of the same band's body of work, but that is about the kindest thing that could be said about this heap of rubbish from a time in metal best forgotten. Somehow in Steev and company's quest to rip off Machine Head a second time they managed to put something together that was better than what said band would birth the same year, underscoring his inability to hop onto a new trend fast enough to keep up with his mentor.
At the end of the day, this album sucks less because its creators sucked a bit more at something else, but regardless of how it sucks or to what degree, it sucks all the same. Avoid this album, avoid this band, and just make a habit of avoiding anything associated with the latter days of the American groove metal scene. You'll be doing all of us a massive favor. Disembody:The New Flesh seems in large part an attempt by Skinlab to actually sound credible and try to actually take themselves seriously.
While forgettable and nondescript, this release easily outpaces and outdoes their earlier material on the boring, Machine Head-Ripoff, slug-paced embarrassment that was Bound, Gagged, and Blindfolded. Skinlab, while still sounding somewhat like Machine Head, seems to be developing a little bit of independent identity and sound as though they're actually trying to make an album as opposed to just ripping off another more well known band and their releases making second rate cash-ins. The New Flesh does improve somewhat over it's predecessor. We have a few dynamics put into the songs to make them feel less droll.
They actually begin to use intros, endings, and the occasional drum blast or distortion effect to break the notion of monotony. The riffs are also faster and punchier this time around.
One-riff songs, while still here with the likes of Coward and Second Skin: New Flesh; are much less common and the songs have gone up a level from dreadful, completely flat droll to forgettable, but okay chug-fests. With these characteristics we're able to get a few cheap adrenaline rushes out of songs like Know Your Enemies, No Sympathy (For the Devil), Breathe, and Excellerate as they have an amount of mindless drive to them that makes them good for a spin or two. Even so, these songs are rather generic and forgettable, nothing special, just a bit of mosh-able chugging. Not everything here is an improvement and it's still a very dull album. Steev's vocals are forgettable as ever, whether sung cleanly or growled. Any front man from any other groove metal band is more distinctive and ear catching than this guy. He even does this stupid effect in the middle of So Far From The Truth where he tries to sound all 'crazy' but just ends up sounding like Boss Nass on the toilet.
The way he delivers his vocals is also laughable as he has a tendency to shout the same thing over and over and over again. He also belts out stupid lyrics like 'What the fuck you wanna be!?' Which are funny at first but get redundant later on. Scapegoat is also the most annoying song on this album given the fact that it relies on nu-metal soft/hard structuring and the fact that both the guitars and Steev simultaneously screech during the chorus; It just sounds irritating. The last three songs are repetitive and nondescript, you wouldn't remember them even after several plays.
I Name My Pain could be very creepy if it weren't spoiled by Esquivel's cheesy emo-ish lyrics. While Skinlab appear to have taken themselves more seriously on this album than their last and made actual songs instead of meandering droll they still lack musically.
The vocals are very badly executed. The riffs, beats, and grooves are generic and forgettable. The subject matter is whiny and poorly executed. And while worthy of a few bangs of the head overall, it doesn't do much. This album is not good, it's very mediocre and I couldn't recommend it to you unless you found it for like two bucks somewhere. Any higher price and you'd just be wasting money.
Calling this album an improvement over 'Bound, Gagged and Blindfolded' is a relative statement considering just how dry and boring their debut actually was. Somewhere between that album and this one, Skinlab managed to put some effort into their studio recordings, instead of simply slapping something together and tossing it out the door.
The end result is not necessarily great or even good by most standards, but sits high above the sluggish mediocrity of the debut and towers above the literal pile of mallcore shit that would appear on 'The Revolting Room.' For one, there are actually some decent riffs on this album.
Granted, these are usually repeated too much and varied very little, but they are there. In terms of late 90's American metal, this manages to come a head over the majority of the mallcore scene, thanks largely to a lack of quirky studio effects, two chord grooves ridden for four minutes, and a lack of white boy rapping. Yet even when that comparison wears thin, the majority of the material pales in comparison to most other groove metal acts, even being rather miniscule compared to mediocre works like 'The More Things Change.'
As one can tell from the opening track 'So Far from the Truth,' Skinlab have put more effort into these songs. They are more tolerable this time around and have some energy to them, as opposed to the oppressively sluggish debut album. 'Know Your Enemies' is a decently catchy number, as is 'No Sympathy' which commits suicide by injecting a poorly placed sermon outtake which comes out of nowhere.
'Scapegoat' also begins rather decently, though with obvious mallcore leanings in terms of soft/hard dynamic changes but again is ruined by over a minute of pointless noise. We then break the ice with some halfway decent groove metal in 'Breathe' and 'Excellerate.' These prove to be some of the better songs on this album, but at the end of the day still fall under the umbrella of mediocre groove metal. If it weren't for the loopy noises and meanderings of this album, not to mention the entirely pointless 'Name My Pain,' I'd rank this album eight points higher. Since the band felt compelled to piss away whatever decent ideas they had with redundant and senseless additions to the mix, I feel no need to be lenient on this album. In terms of improvement, yes, this is definitely an improvement over the debut.
Its also the closest Skinlab would ever come to releasing a decent album, as they struck the shit farm with 'Revolting Room,' a shameless attempt at popularity by mimicing mallcore to a tee. In terms of buying suggestions, this is the only Skinlab album I can recommend. Even with that, I suggest potential buyers salvage it from the discount aisle and be cautious as this album provides very little of value to anyone who already owns Machine Head's first two albums. So now we have come to the sophomore release by Skinlab, a band notorious for ripping-off Machine Head. They released their first annoying fucking album in 1997 titled 'Bound, Gagged, and Blindfolded' which was so hyped-up by their label Century Media as to be the next 'big' thing where it was noting more than one of th worst debut albums of that time next to Killing Culture(ugh.for those of you who remember THAT piece of shit band). So Skinlab tours, put's out an E.P., tours more, and then finally put's out their second album called 'Disembody: The New Flesh' which is even hyped up more than the previous LP. My best friend got this album when it was released and pressured me into hearing this, claiming it was the 'heaviest thing ever!'
And I am reminded of my first encounter with Skinlab and I am not looking forward to this one, but this one is not as obnoxious or annoying or pain-inducing. For one the music and approach is slightly better. A total step up and actual SOME direction of where the music wants to go. First plus for the album. The song titles are better which is another plus, but the lyrics are still aggro-darkness-filled cheese which still sucks.

The guitar riffs are still down-tuned but slightly more focused in being riffs rather than just pointless feedback, and Steeve Esquivel dropped a majority of his pussy melodic singing. So already we have a band that looks like their getting their shit together. The biggest thing this band also did was step away from ripping-off Machine Head which was their biggest drawback.
The album looks promising, but just when things look up it all turns brown. Songs like 'So Far From The Truth', 'Know Your Enemies,' and 'No Sympathy (For The Devil)' are still groove-metal induced but also hold a lot of the ups as mentioned.
But then right as we are seeing much-needed improvement, we are thrown right back to the first album with Steeve's pussy singing on 'Scapegoat' and their talent from plucking a guitar string and then get loud again. 'Breathe' starts off with what sound like Dead Kennedy's 'Nazi Punks Fuck off' but what we get in return is Nu-Metal.
Complete bummer. 'I Name My Pain' is fucking boring. 'Excellerate' is a lot better than the past 3 songs. 'Second Skin: New Flesh' and 'Looks Can be Deceiving' just flat-out suck. More of directionless songs that build up the momentum but never deliver what you think might come; something decent. So as opposed to their first album which had NOTHING going for it, this album contains 3 songs where they have the potential and actual riffs even though they are 90's groove metal.
Skinlab Disembody The New Flesh
Not even half-thrash, just standard groove metal. And the rest of the album just waves in and out a bit unfocused but nowhere as near as downright fucking sluggish as the debut. I guess the best person I would recommend this to is your average Fear factory fan, otherwise if you are desperate just to blow $5 on anything in the used bin at your local CD store, yeah go ahead and buy this. At least it's not as bad as their first.
