Named after artillery, built around the premise of maximum impact at close range, their approach to the genre is exactly as subtle as that implies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDamage Assessment, released in 2003, lands in the thick of the era when European brutal death was competing seriously with the American scene for sheer sonic violence. Houwitser bring the technical precision that the Dutch scene was known for without sacrificing any of the weight. If you want death metal that sounds like it was mixed in a bunker for a reason, this is it. The title is not ironic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFull length CD. Netherlands origin.
