Hopeless-Our Declaration Of War
★ ★ ★ ★★★★★★★
When the guitars get going, along with the dark syncopated grooves you can't help but want to shake like hell and head bang until you're sore all over. These tight punching drums deliver home an amazing back bone. Other parts of the album, sounds A-1 pissed off and ready to explode! Aggressively macabre riffs pull you in and never let you go! There's a tasty groove that's both evil and finite brimming from Hopeless, the madness is surely wonderful, with these magnificent vocal roars. The music continues to bounce about with it's dark flaring passion of pissed off at the world. Loving the change up of interesting but slowed grooves, the melodies slither about without care creating absolute intensity all about. All through the album you're treated to well formulated metal that just keeps on delivering! By Patrick Wooten

PSYCHOSOMATIC-Clicking Sound Of A Hammer Pulled Back
★ ★ ★ ★★★★★★★
The feeling of delicious grinding desperation opens this album wide open like a bad habit. Guitar riffs circulate about in the mix and hammer away with savage allegiance to nothing but pure destruction. The drums are mighty, loud and sure as hell fucking crisp. Vocal quality is decent, I'm liking the added echo's thrown about here and there, it gives him a serious depth of character. A mighty damn bass line slithers forth creating a bad ass intro, from the there music begins to flow with utter explosive tenacity. Very colorful and soul filled guitar solo's. The guitar riffs still seem to march onwards and about with a dark trashing strength, more than enough to impale. Their sound is consistently powerful yet these jagged riffs keep you coming back to this bitterly wonderful destructive mayhem that continues on within these tracks. By Patrick Wooten
