Life Abuse Systematization LP
Metallic crust from a veritable supergroup, featuring ex-members of LIMP WRIST, DEVOID OF FAITH, and LIBYANS, to name a few. Hard to imagine a band with such a pedigree not delivering. No surprise, Systematization is a beast of an album. There are hints of Swedish hardcore melodies and a tinge of shredder metal lurking beneath the surface, but it’s synthesized in a very natural, coherent way. I’m reminded of 3-WAY CUM and EXTINCTION OF MANKIND, but with vocals that lean a bit more hardcore than guttural. Ten tracks of sheer brutality, made to be played loud and often.
