In a word: Crushing! Bulldozing mix of Death Metal & Grind and mid-late 90’s underground extreme Metal that came out of the hardcore scene ex: Unruh & Wellington (both whom guitarist Ryan Kalith played for) & Enewetak. Amazing raging vocals from Grace Perry – one thee craziest vocalists I’ve seen live in recent years. She ran all over Thee Parkside and nearly climbed the walls while still singing in time. Giant riffs and gut punching beats. Always in motion even on the slow, sludgy tunes.

(((((((1)))))) Random bits of noise intro then POW! Charging right at you and knocks you down instantly. Awesome drumming and vocals.
(((((((((((2))))))))) Strong Napalm Death vibe with the hurriance-torando wipe out sound and some solid breaks & solos.
(((((((((3))))))))) FAST & and super catchy chorus. Not far from Misery Index. A riff nick from At The Gates but a bit sneakier at it.
((((((4)))))) Dense & intense Doomy/Death Metal ‘ala with both bassist Matt & Grace singing. Will never stop riffing-ever.
(((((((((5)))))))) Blastin’ Swedish styled Death Metal with some great drum fills.
(((((6))))) Thudding and aggressive riffs & vocals. Drumming a little sputtery in places but otherwise good. Good chorus, too.
((((((((((7)))))))))) Hammering & blasting on impact similar to #3. Drummer Mike Pohlmeier is on fire through this whole track. Nice break with Matt’s very Chris Reifert-like vocals. Killer solos, too.
(((((((8))))))))) Steady and THICK as BRICKS Death Metal/ Proper & Pissed Heavy Hardcore sound. Gets rather catchy around 2:15.
