Kill
Kill is the tenth studio album by American death metal band Cannibal Corpse, released on 21 March 2006. It followed The Wretched Spawn from 2004 and marked the return of guitarist Rob Barrett, who had previously played on The Bleeding and Vile. It was also the first record on which the band tuned down to G♯ standard, giving the guitars a heavier, lower footing.
Erik Rutan of Hate Eternal, who would later join Cannibal Corpse as a guitarist, produced it at Mana Recording Studios. Videos were made for "Make Them Suffer" and "Death Walking Terror", and the former has become a fan favourite that Loudwire counts among the band's best songs. The album reached number 170 on the Billboard 200, and the European edition added a live DVD shot in Strasbourg in 2004. It is widely seen as an essential entry in their catalogue.
