Album Notes & Community Reviews

The legendary grindcore pioneers deliver a relentless sonic assault focused heavily on militant anti-theism and the dangers of religious fanaticism. It features a notable guest vocal appearance from Anneke van Giersbergen, briefly breaking the barrage of blast beats with atmospheric clean singing. The record showcases the band's enduring capacity for raw, politically charged extremity.
