LA RECENSIONE
There are few albums that have marked my life like this one by Cripple Bastards... perhaps only along with 'Jane Doe' by Converge and 'Calculating Infinity' by Dillinger Escape Plan!
"Misantropo a Senso Unico" is HATRED expressed in music: it uses genres like grindcore, crust, and the most negative hardcore to confront us with themes and obsessions that are part of us but that we may deny.
Perversion and extremism, lyrics that leave no hope ("...non servire a niente..." "...tutto il tuo lavoro finirà nel nulla...."), declared misogyny and misanthropy towards a hostile world, the disillusionment of any human relationship, the denial of god; with the addition of a taste for the most extreme and disturbing macabre (the inner booklet filled with mutilated and quartered bodies, cover with photos of stones thrown from overpasses, not to mention what Giulio The Bastard's lyrics evoke: everything that is most aberrant and squalid in our "decent" society).
When I listened to it for the first time, it seemed as if someone had expressed in music everything I thought about life. It seems pointless to describe each song of the entire album... I can recommend listening to "IL TUO AMICO MORTO, RAPPORTO INTERROTTO, MORTE DA TOSSICO" or the very same "MISANTROPO A SENSO UNICO"...
I recommend to anyone looking for something extreme and ITALIAN to download some of it, and if they like it, to buy this album because it’s truly worth it! The finale is heart-stopping, a collage of 94 ultracore songs one after the other with a chilling final track: a sick and perverse sample from a film that concludes this Massacre Flashback "...le donne sono tutte puttane...."!!!!

Without any doubt, it remains one of the most aggressive platters in the world.
Giulio The Bastard has the most aggressive voice on the face of the earth, and only he could have come up with this album.

"'Misantropo A Senso Unico'... is like a chicken coop ladder: short (less than 30 minutes) and full of sh*t."
"This work seems to me a REHASHED AND REPETITIVE use of the usual 'die jerk', 'croak', 'f*ck you piece of trash'."
