Review:

This band is a hardcore, punk rock, metal burst of adrenalin. The singer sounds rabid with foam spurting out of his mouth. The guitar sound is rotten and faultless in purpose with the bass and drums providing the backbone of this diehard brute.

This current release provides more gratification and less clatters than their previous release of Sky/Ocean/Trench (2012). Short, one-word song titles are continued from the previous outing and represent the gist of this album. Each song on this new record is like a round of boxing; gloves filled with sand and loaded with nails, delivering quite a wallop of fury through all out energy. Force equals mass times acceleration.

The cover is not polite, depicting blood dripping from a ram skull, the end product of being gored by veracity, which ultimately symbolizes the essence of this band and the music they play.

You may wish this album was longer in duration, like another ten songs, but maybe you can’t handle any additional hooks or body shots because the pummeling from the upper cuts and round houses have already demolished your light weight, puny frame. Don’t be upset, you can’t always be the toughest guy on the block. 

These guys know the strength of their skills, so get ready to spend some carbohydrates as they speed up your metabolism and jumpstart your nervous system.

Thanks to this album, this week has been a steady diet of beer, pizza, and broken bones.
