Album Notes & Community Reviews

Clocking in at just under 12 minutes, the second album from the New Jersey/Japan grindcore supergroup is a masterclass in hyper-condensed extremity. Jon Chang's manic shriek and Takafumi Matsubara's dizzyingly complex, melodic guitar work create a blindingly fast, technical assault.
