A good Hardcore/Thrash album. Nothing really special about these guys but their songs weren't horrible. I feel like these guys have some real talent but this album is filled with a lot of songs that seem like random unfinished tracks and is more like an outtakes album than a real one. The tracks that were fleshed out were decent hardcore at worst and very entertaining original music at best.
I liked:3,14,30,31. Some FCCs detected, maybe not all because a lot of it was screaming.
1.Loud hardcore track with start stop dynamics and screamo vocals.
2.FCC? (vagina? fcc?)Fast crossover thrash with a mix of screamo and death metal vocals. At different points in the song the two singers have spoken word segments that come off as more disturbing then good.
3*.Good hardcore track, with understandable lyrics!
4.FCC! fuck. It starts off as a thrash song, and then changes to a cantonese rant, ending with a falsetto chant and heavy metal shredding.
5.34 seconds of the band saying all the other bands who they hate.
6.A continuation of the last track with the band stating what they hate about them. Decent hardcore track.
7.This track was a speeding bullet that ended so quickly that one can barely process what they just heard.
8. FCC! fuck & dick. Typical Crossover-thrash song with heavy metal shredding and blast beats and hollered lyrics.
9. FCC! fuck & ass(fcc?)Like number 8 but against Bush instead of Regan. Again thrash sound.
10.Fcc! bastard(fcc?) fuck & shit. Pretty good Thrash track with pretty good vocals.
11.Slow sort of sludgy track with ominous vocals.
12.Good slowish thrash.
13.Typical Hardcore, with the singer attempting to imitate Serj Tankian...and failing.
14*.FCC maybe.. fuck maybe... Pretty cool bass heavy track with lyrics describing the turmoils of finding a bassist and the underappreciation of the instrument.
15.Slow instrumental jam, which was nice and a spoken cantonese part at the end. Occasionaly the song will speed up in an odd YYZ imitation.
16.Melodic Thrash track
17.Hardcore with screaming vocals
18.Energetic thrash track.
19.FCC! fuckin. Typical Hardcore
20.FCC? ass? Gives a bit of a headache because of the vocals.
21*. FCC! fuckin. More like a Bad Religion song than anything else on the album. Pretty good track.
22.Probably the funniest track on this album, with a call and response chorus featuring falsettos.
23. FCC! shit. Alright generic hardcore
24.FCC! shit & fuck.What just happened? It was 15 seconds of loud music that came and left too quickly
25.Kinda like a harder Clash song good though.
26.A lot heavier than the other stuff is more like a death metal track then thrash/hardcore.
27.A mix of the Clash and a hard rock song.
28.Generic hardcore, not very appealing.
29.Fast thrash.
30* FCC! motherfucker.One of the more well developed tracks on the album, that features very good shred guitar.
31*. A pleasent oddity sounds a lot like a Primus song and theres a tint of jazz in there, minus the horns.
