Jeez... A 13 song demo, plus intro, outro and multimedia bonuses. Also pro-printed cover
and individual pages in the booklet for the lyrics. It's not often a band puts so much effort
into a demo. But that's also why I'm surprised that they didn't put equal amount of effort
into the recording, the sound quality does not do them justice. It's pretty thin production to
be honest. But they recorded it themselves and that's DIY for ya. Not everyone has access to
Soundlab when recording their own band, hehe.
I'm not really sure what to compare this to. It can be quite mid tempo and sound like a hardcore
crust band. When the faster parts kick in it all gets too murky, and you can't really make out
what the drummer's up to. The vocals remind me a bit of .Inane, which means harsh dog barks
vs. rabid dog barks, hehe. They're pretty good and fit great. But I know the music really reminds
me of another band, I just can't figure out which band. I've gone through my record collection, but
I still don't know. The best I've come up with is Immured, and that's no good comparison.
Oh well, there's really nothing I can do about that right now... Anyway, political lyrics dealing with
neo-nazism, war making, and of course the scene. Oh yeah, as I said it has some multimedia bonuses.
You can find a bunch of pics there, but also five music videos!
They should have put more money into the recording, which would have improved this demo a lot. I mean,
it's definitely good ol' fashioned grindcore for the unloved, I like it, but the sound drags it in the
mud...
