MY BITTER END-THE RENOVATION
Uprising Records
There are few appropriate words to describe this ferocious beast of an album. It was like a DAUGHTERS meets PSYOPUS. The unhinged, dizzying leads crash head first into blast beats and hollow, echoed screams. They took one part hardcore and intertwined it with two parts death. The end result was a nasty little collection of sheer violence in the form of music. It's beyond reason how a band could switch so quickly and effortlessly between lighting quick riffs and jazzy, tech metal jaunts. I would presume it would require a truckload of Red Bull for these guys to finish a show. Shit, it would probably take the listener a few of those high test energy drinks just to keep up with them. The only plausible drawback would be the fact that there were times when the music became slightly muddled because of all the adventures orchestrations and timing changes. Those tangled moments tended to be followed up by linear soundscapes that allowed you just enough time to catch your breath. Other than that, it was fully charged "deathcore" for you eventual insane asylum attendees. If you are brave enough, take the plunge into their hellacious world.
