Dying Fetus
Dying Fetus is a metal band formed in 1991 in Maryland, United States. As of 2004, its line-up consists of John Gallagher (guitar, vocals), Mike Kimball (guitar), Sean Beasley (bass), and Erik Sayenga (drums). Dying Fetus is often described as technical death metal, and the band is renowned for its technical proficiency.
Dying Fetus's music is a hybrid of death metal, grindcore and hardcore, characterized by extremely fast blast-beats, complex riffing and slow breakdowns. Lyrics-wise, the band dabbled in the usual gory death metal subject matter on their early albums, and respectively covered "Born in a Casket," a song originally written by the lyrically-gore-focused metal band of them all, Cannibal Corpse. By 2000’s Destroy The Opposition, however, they had practically completely shifted to political lyrics. The lyrics are quite left-wing (though the band, due to a recent change in line-up and lyrics-writing duties, has taken a slight step towards right-wing), mostly consisting of aggressive critique addressed towards things such as religion, corporations, consumerism, racism and war.
