In all honesty, not knowing what to expect from the opening
track, “Red All Over,” the intro gave me that not another hardcore band. Its
ringing feedback guitar and slow drumming is something I don’t like. Then out
of nowhere brutality hits you, as well as a very familiar vocalist, Travis
Ryan, this sounds like Cattle Decapitation if they stuck to full on grindcore. Flowing
right off the first track is “Under the Weight of the Wood.” The songs switch with no warning, fade, or
cut which made me check my iTunes just to see why the song sounded so different
all of a sudden. The guitar on this one is very nice and some parts feel a
little black metal like.
This album has proven there is no time to catch breath as
one song melds right into the next and it continues with “No Questions, No
Comment.” The drumming stands out more in this song and I think there was a
guitar solo but you can’t hear it over
the rest of the brutality but you can the second time around though. The
technical riffs and spastic drumming is a little hard to follow in the next
track “Gold Digger.” Travis Ryan’s vocals on this track are very well done and
almost showcase his vocal range better than Cattle Decapitation did on the
“Monolith of Inhumanity” album.
“Compelled by Mediocrity” opens up with a fantastic
companionship between the drums and guitar. I also liked the riff half way
through the song, it has a nice groove to it. There is a nice slam style riff
in the next song “The Next Life.” Some parts in this song are hard to follow
because its simply all over the place but it keeps you on your toes, or wheels
in my case. The blackened death riff half way through this song was really
nice, it felt like Behemoth. Brutal all the way through next is “Dead Hope,”
but that’s not different from the rest of the album, its just so short I can’t
really say much about it.
The beginning guitar riff in “Feign Ignorance” was nice with
the whammy on the end of it. Travis Ryan’s vocals on this track are some of the
best on the album. There is a small pause in this song that totally breaks the
brutal the whole way through compliment, but a tiny break is no big deal. The
next two songs are short so a big thought on them is hard to really come up with.
Both “Mercy, Mercy” and “Malicious Guilt” had great guitar and drumming in
them. Ending the album, at a monstrous six minutes in length, we have “Resultados.”
I was getting so used to the short songs I was wondering if it was over at one
and a half minutes. This track is nicely paced and actually has slower parts. I
liked the melodic bit, its not an actual melodic riff but it still has the
feel. The guitar and piano that plays this album out is especially eerie.
This album is a must buy for those who like Cattle
Decapitation and also for those who enjoy grindcore and death metal. After
hearing this along as “Monolith of Inhumanity,” I think I can say Travis Ryan
is one my favourite vocalist. I definitely recommend this album.
