Album Notes & Community Reviews
Operating under the satirical guise of a nefarious corporate entity, the Washington D.C. trio utilizes 'Conglomerate International' to critique late-stage capitalism and technological alienation. Their spastic, angular brand of post-hardcore is characterized by frenetic guitar dissonance and barked vocals, prefiguring the dance-punk and mathcore movements of the subsequent decade.
