Time Waits For No Slave (Sampler)

Grindcore & blasting metal, duh! Although, this time out Napalm goes back to their “weird heavy riff rock” period on the mid-90s but keeps it fresh with some dense riffing and strong drumming (though not a ton of blast beats). That said, they DO manage do grind a little but they’re more pummeling than anything. Still really good after 25+ years & zillion line up changes.

(((((1))))) Heavy & wild sound mid-paced with a quick burst of grind. Barney’s growling vocals duet with someone singing very melodic weird as that sounds, it actually works.
((((((2)))))) (FCC “Fucking” sung once). Blast-beats then strange VoiVod/Swans in space vibe then more fuckin’ circular riff-havin’ grind. Plus multiple “Oüh!” s AND a “here we gooooo!” Bonus points!
(((((3))))) Super riffy, totally catchy and rockin’ AND a fist full of blast beats in the 2nd part. Sounds like it would slay live.
(((((((4))))))) (FCC “Fucking” 1 time that’s audible) Storming-FAST d-beat influenced grind with a great mid-section (not a breakdown per se). Take no prisoners kinda stuff.
(((((5)))) Really big sound with modern riffing and beats but it still manages to sound like Napalm Death. Weird overall but they manage to put their own stamp on this odd collage riffs and mid-paced tempos.
