23 tracks of pure death grind ( in some of the tracks the structure is more death metal but the vocals are always very grindcore) with some strange riffs here and there and a lot of sense of humour. This is an album where you can listen the 23 tracks and you don´t get bored despite the speed and rottenness of all the songs contained here. I find funny the way in which the band throws certain arrangements here and there, like some guitar phrases...they are very short ! (Check "NO!" to see what I am talking about). The sound is different while comparing the first eighteen tracks to the last five...I like better the first ones because there is more clarity on the instruments and specially on the voclas (the drums are well mixed on both types of tracks). Grind/ death fans will love this one. Favorite tracks: "Destroy NATO Bastards", "Punk as Piss" and "Working Class". Contact: downfall_records@hotmail.com
