“…this track hits like a speeding car hits a brick wall — violently and with full force.” – MetalSucks
MetalSucks is hosting the exclusive premiere of CARTILAGE’s new video for “Globs Of Glimmering Gore,” the latest slab of gore previewing the Bay Area deathgrind crew’s impending EP, Tales From The Entrails: A Necrology.
The dead may rest but the grind goes on. CARTILAGE is serving up another frenzied feast with Tales From The Entrails: A Necrology. The blastmasters took their studio operations to home base, enlisting Scott Evans (Kowloon Walled City, Ghoul, Thrice) for recording and mixing duties, while the genre’s perennial grindfather Leon del Muerte (Impaled, Exhumed, Nails) handled mastering, the record then completed with art by Jason V Roberts and photos by Kei Mowry.
The Bay Area gore titans continue to spill their guts across the land but with new tools in their trade: twisting harmonies and cinematic set-pieces now compliment CARTILAGE’s arsenal of blistering blasts, ripcord riffs, and deranged shrieks fans know to expect. Tales From The Entrails: A Necrology offers the biggest color palette on a CARTILAGE release to date. Now with even more shades of red.
The video for “Globs Of Glimmering Gore” was directed and edited by Mike Flory with Kei Mowry as director of photography and gore effects by Mark Wallace and Mike Flory. The band declares, “This video contains glorification of gelatinous, gangrenous, gargling, ghastly, gut garroting grossness that is ‘Globs Of Glimmering Gore!’”
MetalSucks writes with their premiere of the visuals, “As you might expect from the track’s title, this one’s a crushing four minutes of Bay Area brutality… Seriously, this track hits like a speeding car hits a brick wall — violently and with full force.”

Since their malformation in 2014, the San Franciscan sickos CARTILAGE have brewed a special concoction of gory deathgrind so foul, it would leave Carcass and Impetigo screaming in horror.
After spending their formative years sharpening their axes, the CARTILAGE crew entered Greg Wilkinson’s Earhammer Studios to spawn their debut full-length, Dialect Of The Dead (2017). Upon its release, members Mark Wallace, Teresa Flory, Michael Flory, and Adam Houmam spent the next few years spreading their grotesque gospel to terrified audiences across the greater US and Europe.
2020 saw the addition of bassist Kienan Hamilton adding his pummeling low-end to the quintets next two blood offerings; the self-released and recorded Gore-Met EP (2020), followed by The Deader The Better LP (2022), produced by Matt Harvey (Exhumed) and released via Creator-Destructor Records. With a wealth of shows throughout the East and West Coasts and a US tour with Gruesome under their leathers, the five-piece has tightened into a well-bloodied machine.
