Powerviolence, hardcore, grind par excellence. For the uninitiated that means screamed vocals, flurries of super rapid playing, surrounded by heavy discordant dirgey slower sections. Closest comparison is to The Endless Blockade and in sonic texture even Cadaver In Drag. An extremely dark album (read the lyrics). The band develops themes of utter distraught and sick hopelessness appreciable even to non-fans of the genre. FCC indecent 5,6,14,19. Picks 7-14.
