Album Notes & Community Reviews

The grindcore pioneers continued their highly controversial mid-90s evolution, drastically slowing down their tempos to fully explore heavy, churning mid-paced grooves. Mark 'Barney' Greenway briefly adopted cleaner, spoken-word vocal passages over rhythms heavily indebted to modern industrial and groove metal. The drastic stylistic departure deeply divided their hardcore fanbase but remains a fascinating document of their experimental era.
