Well fuck, isn’t this a collaboration of the grindcore elite? Your men Dorian Rainwater and Bryan Fajardo (both of 9000 different amazing bands), along with Rahi (Insect Warfare) on vokills, smash out a stunning set of spasmodic, intensely complex technical grindcore. With production by Scott Hull, art by Arif Rot and a complimentary noise piece by everyone’s favourite stoner madman Jay Randall, the fact that I have snoozed on this album for 12 years is nothing short of insulting.
First impressions had me drawing comparisons with bands like Maruta and Evisorax, and of course associated acts like Kill The Client and more-so, Gridlink can also be heard within this. However, this record is greater than the sum of its parts and is elevated to its own unique form of total sonic chaos. It is 30 songs of insane audio terror, and something that I will forever be recommending in grind-related conversations for many moons to come.
I need to check out some more Noisear.
