Review:
Now, honestly, i was heading into this with pretty low expectations, which should be natural when you know close to nothing about the band I guess. But you know what? This wasn't bad! Not bad at all! Somewhat unoriginal but when you're working with grindcore it can get hard to be original and not suck. These dudes manage to pull off some really cool songs. Bacterial holocaust, Acid Satan and Pigsticker are the three that really stand out to me, and they brought this up from your average grindcore band to something with a lot of potential! The guitars are nice, some cool riffs throughout (although not amazingly original riffs mind you), for what it's worth they seem to be pretty skilled and I bet the guitarist could pull off some really badass riffing if needed (maybe a few solos, that'd be cool). The drumming is what you'd expect from a grindcore band, nothing amazing but it does what is needed, blastbeats, some cool fills and rolls and some cool cymbal play through out make it worth it. All I can say is that the drummer needs to spice things up a bit and this would be perfect! The vocals are pretty cool, some death metal vocals, some higher pitched vocals, you know grinding shit dude! I can't really comment on the vocals too much, they're well done but could use a little bit more variation to them (maybe some really low pitched stuff or hell dude, maybe a few short Regurgitate styled pitch shifted parts) but hell, i'm not a vocalist, it's better then anything I can do!
Overall i'd have to say the this is a worthwhile Ep from a underground grindcore band showing some real potential, check it out before they rear their heads at the next Obscene Extreme fest!
Give It A Spin!
Final Rating:
3.5/5
