Album Review
Ragnar of Ravensfjord
Reviewed 2010-05-04
Rough & gnarly but catchy hardcore from Oakland. Loud & clear guitar and melodic female vocals. Kinda like fellow Oaklanders, Retching Red or even a more straight ahead Plasmatics. Rad stuff that’s meant to be seen in a spray-painted covered warehouse with kids bringing their own beer. In all, really well done hardcore. Only real complaint is Heather’s vocals are far too low in the mix in a lot of places. It would be nice to hear her louder & clearer as she’s quite good. Otherwise a fine LP.

SIDE A
(((((1))))) (FCCs “fucking” sung twice) Fast charging hardcore & much clearer vocals.
((((2)))) Bassy, hard hitting mid-paced, raw & to the point.
((((((3))))) Builds off a riff similar to the last one. Great & classic (proper) hardcore vocal delivery.
(((((4))))) (FCC “Fucking” sung three times) Big, hard-hitting intro with really cool vocal cadance and sorta-metalic structure into fast hardcore with both female and male vocals.

SIDE B
((((1))))) (FCC “Fucking” sung once & fast) Rockin’ riffs, pounding drums, clear vocals. Pretty catchy.
((((2)))) Vocals low in the mix but has a very live sound. Bass & guitar a really prominent.
((((3)))) (FCC “fucking” sung 3 times) Bassy, great drum sound.
((((((4))))) Fast & direct hardcore. Really good vocals & drumming.
((((((5))))))) (FCC “fucking” sung once, “fuck” sung once) Rippin’ punky hardcore, excellent vocals & some good breaks & tempos.
