Fear the grinding Kiwi death machine. This is fucking incessant, unyielding and beautiful. A musical canvas splatter-painted with fragmented guitars and heavy-artillery blasts of some of the tightest rhythm out there. Imagine a more focused or reigned-in Dillinger Escape Plan. No free jazz or breakdowns, just chaos incarnate with the double bass and blast beats constantly challenging the tempo threshold. Amazing. Like a bad PCP trip... but fun.
Ulcerate have aptly named themselves. I can feel a sour spot opening up inside my stomach as I type. If I turned the volume up just a bit I bet I'd get facial contortions. Fuck. These guys are good. Call it extreme ADHD HC. Do not listen to this shit on the road unless your car has a roll cage.
