Tortured, Raped and Sacrificed to Satan is about as cliché as it comes. Divine Pustulence tries no new tricks at all and I didn't expect them to. The music is brutal death metal with deep end vocals and lots of frog-like gurgling. Lyrically the band shows their fascination for serial killers just like Macabre do. Normally I find all this very cool, but it becomes a little too much on this effort. It doesn't make it any better that the Americans most of all sound like a middling demo band. The music is not very tight played and it's not very versatile in its approach either.

A big problem is the vocals, they are a monotone blur and that becomes annoying after a while. The vocals are largely to blame for the songs sounding alike. The shitty samples are another thing that doesn't make Tortured, Raped and Sacrificed to Satan a very complete effort. Most are primitive clips from documentaries and other appears to be done by the band in an almost spoken word kind of way. It sounds inane and is hard to take serious. There's no vitality or drive in the sound either. The production is thin and muddy. Tortured, Raped and Sacrificed to Satan is an effort without much substance. It's the kind of release where you can't wait to hit the eject button.
