Yes, Mumakil and Brutal Truth do sound similar. I'm amused you actually listened to the muppet "Animal" playing grindcore. I didn't think anyone would.
"Sludgy" is a good adjective for the music. I decided that "I Killed My Family" is the EXACT sort of song most parents probably hope their teenage boys won't be listening to while holed up in their bedrooms. Could make one a little...n e r v o u s.
I tested out parts of nine songs by Brutal Truth, then switched to another band, Fall of Efrafa, that I prefer because their songs are more varied.
I learned that
Fall of Efrafa is a post-metal band whose entire discography apparently is based on
Watership Down, which I loved as a movie. I like how the music (at least this song) has a punk vibe due to the drumming that counters the monotony of the incessant growling:
Fall of Efrafa - "Pity the Weak"

And now I'm listening to one of their songs that starts out sounding more meditative and melodic before energizing itself then quieting down to include violin (didn't expect that). My favorite part of this long song is the heavy drumming that occurs at and after 6:22.
