Fierce, heavy and pissed off political hardcore intensity from Pittsburgh. Lyrics are focused on a variety of American policies. All of which work like a mini-documentary. The vocals are incredible – very aggressive but very distinct. This band has members of a couple of kick-ass metal/HC bands from the ‘burg: Aus Rotten, Caustic Christ and Penance. This is a “total package” album: great songs plus a great visual presentation. The title is all TOO appropriate for the age we live in.

SIDE I
((((1)))) Spoken intro with a scary totaliarian theme.
((((2)))) Blazing hardcore with catchy breakdowns and vocals.
((((3)))) Huge metallic riff into devastating hardcore attack!
((((4)))) Sort of epic and full of great drumming and pointed vocal lines. A tad too insistent on the repetive chorus but otherwise excellent.
(((((((5))))))) Jesus on a pogo cross is this is killer! To the fucking point and focused on the genocide in Darfur.
(((((6))))) Slowish, straight-ahead rockin’ & epic and goes perfect with images of the devastation of Hurricane Katrina.
(((((7))))) Kick ass…“thrashy crust”? Simple and poignant. Attacks the greedy bastards like Haliburton for profiting in New Orleans.

SIDE II
(((((1))))) Riffy, winding and big sounding to a phalax of ripping hardcore with lots of multi-vocal attacks.
(((((2))))) Monsterous, fast apocalyptic crusty with more excellent multi-vocal parts.
((((((3)))))) D-beat massacre with a vocal/riff/drum that takes to it’s subject like a shark to fresh meat.
(((((4))))) (FCC “Shit” sung once) Low-end laden, steady & fast and catchy, gets even better in the second half.
(((((5))))) Explosive, brutall heavy & seriously rockin’, great riffs all over.
((((((6)))))) Amazing vocals and underscored by another huge & fast-ish number. Someone really needs to use this stuff in a documentary.
(((((7)))))) Even more fast, massive riffs and intense vocals. Awesome!
