Having completely removed (damned arteriosclerosis) the fact that she de-reviewed (perfectly) the de-presented disc, I was preparing to draw conclusions in a passionate and burned-out listening: this is what I clumsily tried to de-scribe regarding it.
Fourteen recalcitrant yet passionate and wonderfully stinging hyper-explosive tracts make up this authentic sonic jumble with a total duration of about twenty scattered minutes.
The gentlemen in question, besides being endowed with the magnificent and appropriate gift of audio-synthesis, beautifully synthesize sound in an overwhelming, animated, cacophonic work—yielding a far more successful example of urgent post/hardcore: an immense intensity and acoustically assorted volumes, almost prohibitive, dominate within the brief span of the Swordistic work.
The reminder volumes are appropriately and deliberately positioned beyond the human level of listening-watching: overflowing and deafening sounds for one of the most schizo-farnetic proposals extrapolated from the vibrant Jade Tree.
Despite appearances (and fortunately), we do not find ourselves before the umpteenth congregation of vacuous, unrepentant loudmouths (of which there are quite a few) from the thick underground Stello-Strisciense cauldron, but rather an authentic reality endowed with a remarkable and intelligent sound-tinkering ability.
It’s impossible not to get involved by the deadly accelerations and the beudine screams (if I didn’t have audio hallucinations, I would swear I hear a hairy and ultra-tonsillar version of the year’s Rollins) of the clattering “Two Lies” or the combative volumetric adventures contained in “Watching The Clock” or in the anthemic (one would say a bit) “Talking Whip”.
Twenty years of magnificently unaligned, confrontational, grumpy, and venomous sound are summarized, concentrated, shaken, and wonderfully served to the audio-audiences in just under twenty rapid minutes of furious (perfectly controlled) sound and spectacular acoustic bravado.
Warm regards antzichenò. Your s.c. di (s)fiduciam.
