Classic 90's crust massacre with Doom, Cruelty, Dirt etc members.

This was defnitely an exciting 1994 reissue to be assigned. It starts off with a ripping, bombarding soloed instrumental, as most crust bands did in the '90s. Fueled-up punk, raw and powerful, E.N.T./HELLCRUSHER-style intro, right into "Exist Enslaved"? (which I believe I've heard covered several times before being introduced to this record). So if you like DOOM or STATE OF FEAR with a bit more range between vocalists, this reissue is for a lucky you. Mags has one of the most ferocious, vitriolic, raspiest vocal tones ever. Ripping. The EXCREMENT OF WAR split with DEFORMED CONSCIENCE might be my favorite of their material--this was earlier and looser--but to that point, it's raw crust and punk as fuck. The UK/US match-up complements each other so well on the split, so if you can get a hand on this, or either for that matter, you will not be disappointed. Essential '90s European crushing, ripping, hardcore crust. "Encased in their military cocoon; the outside appearances [are just] blips on [a] screen. Enemy tank. Enemy child. Enemy plane. Enemy tree..."
