Accolades for 3 Way Split CD
Discordance Axis start the whole shebang off with their manic brand of hideous devil-grind. Faster than the train that knocks you out your shoes because you thought you could �make it easy� across the tracks, and liable to have much the same effect. Then Corrupted. The Yin to Discordance Axis�s Yang. We switch from hyper speed down to slow motion sickness, still just as unpleasant but taking a more leisurely approach to caving in your weakling�s skull. The sound on this recording is just thick and enormous. Musicianship moves at a glacial pace.. Painful, slow and beautiful. 324 play a brand of heavy grindcore. Throaty shouts and music that is played somewhere between fast and very fast, depending on the band�s mood.
It's all about compression. Take three very different grind bands and ask 'em to put down their best stuff in a limited space of time. It shouldn't work. It should be a mess. No way, Jose. This 3 way split is a cohesive, complex and domineering work that sees Discordance Axis fucking destroy with their first track and then have the nerve to put in a slow drone piece. Corrupted give two songs across 16 mins. of heartstopping doom crust, and 324 finish off with three very fast crust punk slabs.
