He� These are some seriously alcohol-loving guys. I suppose you kinda got that from the title, but you don�t even know half of it until you�ve read the lyrics.
Musically it�s sorta like a mix of Bombstrike and two old Swedish acts called Antabus and Abuse, which means fierce and raw-as-hell crustcore in the Scandinavian school. Vocal-wise it reminds me a bit of Abuse yet again. I think it�s the distortion that does it, though a bit harsher here. The production might be a bit too lame, but the ferocity of the tunes sure-as-hell makes up for it. Agenda is by far the greatest song on here. The raw screaming is mixed with a darker growling, which adds a catchiness missing in the other tracks.
The Swiss booze-filled crust comes delivered in a wicked gatefold cover that seems way too expensive for a 7�. And the great artwork makes it look even cooler. A great introduction to this band!
