★★★☆ Take the best parts of Converge and Cave-In (naturally, given this supergroup’s members and Kurt Ballou at the helm), and add a touch of Queens Of The Stone Age. While there are very few pretentions here in the path between their fists and your face, the band do explore unusual music territory just enough to keep your interest. The vocals took a little getting used to, but only a little. Rarely do you find a metal/punk/whatever album like this: one that is as ferocious as it is catchy. And my god, so much bass!
