This recording is super lo-fi, but I almost wonder what will happen to me once this band records something with more slick production. I honestly think it might turn me into dust. The drumming on this record is mind-melting and when I casually put this on in a room with a few people, I watched them all stop what they were doing and freeze like deer in the headlights, trying to listen to what was happening. Every song hovers around a minute and the only thing that gives away that this isn’t a Charles Bronson record played at lower speed is how fucking tight it all is. Even as the vocals shred, you can tell that by “constantly terrified” these folks don’t mean that they live in a state of horror but, rather, just the regular persistent anxiety of living in the world. We can all relate. –Theresa W. (Self-released)
