Maximum Violence is the third album by American death metal band Six Feet Under. The album goes back to Chris Barnes' roots in Cannibal Corpse with violent themes/lyrics. It was also the first Six Feet Under album to feature Steve Swanson on guitars.
Style
Steve Huey of AllMusic described the sound as "basically simple riffs alternat[ing] between slow and fast tempos, with ridiculously over-the-top vocals spewing tales of death, dismemberment, and other variations on gore and splatter themes."[1]
Reception
Steve Huey of AllMusic wrote: "The main problem with the record is its lack of variety, in both style and subject matter -- one gets the impression that any riff or lyric could be moved from one song to another with no noticeable difference in the overall effect. Still, if you're a fan of this particular style of death metal, Maximum Violence does deliver the goods."[1]
