This three piece act from Tucson have been making electronic music under this banner since 2005 and have released two full length albums before this one. This is rhythmic noise in the more experimental school with lots of other electronic elements such as industrial, electro and breakbeats.

After a short intro which later blends in to the first real song we get a whole bunch of songs served and what a bunch. Some songs are quite slow and in a way ambient while others are like real old school hardcore just pumping fast and hard music. Song number five "Dark Cheats" is a perfect example of the harder parts of this album. Directly after this track comes a slower but just as hard song just to show how diverse this album is.

There are no real lyrics and singing to find other than a few short text and a lot of samples, just like it should be. Very funny song titles to like "Stuffin' the Jellyroll Muffin" and "Batsmasher". Can’t explain what's so funny about the last one, it just is.
