Multicellular Savagery

So I have a bag of chips that I anticipate is going to be a challenge to consume, with that in mind I wanted to pair them with some heavy music..que a text to Ryan (who's deep into metal of the death/black variety) for a recommendation for a super heavy/aggressive album. I'm just starting to listen to Outer Heaven's late 2018 album Realms of Eternal Decay. Before even listening to the album, based on the cover font, I'm going to go with..death or crust (as I previously mentioned the affinity for death so it must be a death font [do metal genres have distinguishing factors between their fonts])? A few songs in, this shit's heavy. The vocals are gutteral and I'm not sure if my ears just aren't trained to pick up on the deep vocals (based on my primarily punk to hardcore listening tendencies) or maybe they're just too barked to discern what the actual words are (not saying it's a bad thing [and suffice to say I'm not going to be delving into the lyrical content]). The music has dense guitars that at times are almost groovy. There's some good chuggidge and breakdowns..and a healthy dose of shredding at times there's hints of thrash present in the music. Are there double kicks? I'd assume so, that or some crazy single kick trickery at times. I don't believe there's odd time signatures.The music is fast but not manic..for the most part. The songs are typically in the 3-4 minute range so they don't drone one. (after writing my opinion I checked their Bandcamp tags of; metal, brutal death metal, death metal, old school death metal, and Douglasville). Definately gets your head nodding. Now let's see how this pairs with Hardbite Sweet Ghost Pepper (Cooked in 100% Avo Oil [assuming that's taint speak for avocado oil?] handcrafted-style chips.

Hardbite's packaging/image is..I don't know..comes off as a little needy (is that the right word [does it matter {I'm blogging about a bag of chips}]). They also note nothing artificial and gluten free on the bag. Now lets see if the flavour is any more metal than their (feels faux) natural hippie branding. They smell like deep fried potatoes, no bite in the scent. The crunch is mid range, enjoyable. The first flavour sensation is almost a honey sweetness, followed by a super mild bite that leaves a warm sensation in your mouth but no unbearable burning. I'd say that the heat is similar if not slightly less than a typical jalapeno chip however the flavour of the heat is pretty bangin'. I assumed that these chips would be a feat of strength to consume..but they're actually just a really nice sweet and spicy chip. I'm getting forehead sweats but I'm like 60g into the bag and still haven't needed any water (is there something I'm missing that's going to kick in half an hour after I'm done consuming?). I'm starting to feel a little weird listening to Outer Heaven while consuming these. I'm pretty confused right now..gonna go back to listening to Blink 155 at 1.5 speed.

Stay hydrated,
