THE REVIEW
Born from the twisted minds of Alex Newport and Max Cavalera (formerly of Fudge Tunnel and Sepultura), they scrape their dark souls and throw them into this album that reeks of white noise and tribal rhythm, a confused mix of metal and hardcore, which begins in the first track "Wasting Away", immediately launching into a schizophrenic yet very catchy sound.
The album is sprinkled with scorching guitars and pure malevolence, with a drummer, sufficiently technical, keeping the "time" of the highly destructive tracks that flow relentlessly throughout the album without a moment's respite for the stereo.
Noteworthy is Exploitation, advised against for the faint-hearted, especially for the vocal performance, if it can be called that, resembling a slaughterhouse; cockroaches, can be considered pleasing to the ear and sick life, perhaps the pinnacle of the album, where the artists come very close to the "Pantera style" in some respects, though the overall feel remains the same.
An album that cannot be missed by a genre enthusiast, to be listened to "in the presence of an adult".
I would rate it 3/4 stars.
