Cannibal Corpse Butchered At Birth Ugly Christmas Sweater Gile Vest Death Metal Holiday Knit With Skull Pattern And Nordic Design For Winter Festivities

This gilé vest-style ugly Christmas sweater featuring skull patterns and Nordic Fair Isle design pays tribute to Cannibal Corpse’s landmark second studio album Butchered at Birth, released July 1, 1991 through Metal Blade Records—a seminal death metal record that pushed the boundaries of brutality and established the Buffalo, New York-formed band as pioneers of extreme music. Butchered at Birth was recorded over two weeks at legendary Morrisound Recording in Tampa, Florida with renowned producer Scott Burns, featuring the original lineup of vocalist Chris Barnes, bassist Alex Webster, drummer Paul Mazurkiewicz, and guitarists Bob Rusay and Jack Owen, who practiced 4-hour sessions five days per week with the goal of becoming “the most brutal band on earth”. The album’s nine tracks including “Meat Hook Sodomy,” “Gutted,” “Living Dissection,” “Under the Rotted Flesh,” “Covered with Sores,” “Vomit the Soul,” and the title track “Butchered at Birth” showcased even heavier, more dissonant and guttural sonic textures than their 1990 debut Eaten Back to Life, cementing Cannibal Corpse’s reputation for controversial album artwork and indecipherable growling vocals that defined death metal aesthetics. This holiday vest celebrates a band that gained mainstream recognition through their iconic appearance in 1994’s Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (performing “Hammer Smashed Face” for $500) and became death metal’s first act to appear on Billboard’s Top 200, ultimately selling over one million albums worldwide across a 35+ year career spanning 16 studio albums. The Nordic Fair Isle knit pattern combines traditional Scandinavian holiday aesthetics with death metal imagery, featuring skull motifs that reference Butchered at Birth’s notorious album artwork—creating the perfect fusion of festive tradition and extreme music culture for ugly sweater parties, winter metal concerts, or gifting to die-hard fans of technical death metal. Crafted from premium knitted artificial wool blend (90% polyester + 10% spandex, 280g GSM) ensuring warmth, durability, and resistance to wrinkles and shrinking, this sleeveless vest offers versatile layering over long-sleeve band tees or worn independently throughout the cold season. Available in sizes S to 5XL, this officially-inspired merchandise is essential for Cannibal Corpse collectors who appreciate Butchered at Birth’s place in death metal history alongside classics like Tomb of the Mutilated (1992), The Bleeding (1994), and recent releases like Violence Unimagined (2021) and Chaos Horrific (2023). Perfect for fans who witnessed Cannibal Corpse’s evolution from Buffalo underground to global death metal royalty—currently featuring George “Corpsegrinder” Fisher (vocals since 1995), Alex Webster (bass), Paul Mazurkiewicz (drums), Rob Barrett and Erik Rutan (guitars)—this Butchered at Birth holiday vest lets metalheads celebrate Christmas with uncompromising brutality and Nordic knit craftsmanship.
