Furious grindcore, power-violence & noise rawk done up the right way. Local damage from San Jose featuring at least one member from Ringwürm. Doing something not many bands in this style have done – playing songs that really stand out and not just get bogged down with shitty vocals or “blaster-bation”. Great live band, too. Sounds like there’s 2 vocalists-both of which fit well with the intensity of their tunes. Sorta similar to Endless Blockade, No Comment & maybe even Eyehategod in the slower parts.

(((((1))))) Thundering doomy opening into blazing power-violence and back again.
((((2)))) Simple attack of bass & drum massacre and throat shredding vocals.
(((((3))))) Great mix of power-violence AND grindcore. Wild drumming and some more doomy/sludge parts.
(((((4))))) Whirlwind grind fury with a good dual attack. Plus the doom ridin’ part at 1:00 is killer.
(((((((5)))))) Crushing, blurry-fast grind attack with a massive low-end.
((((((6))))))) Big ass noise rawk & pummeling with oddly metered guitars and gnarly vocals.
((((((7)))))) Back to the grind – totally annihilating stuff with dual vocals & another blurry tempo. Great bass break @ 00:37.
