Get blasted by this California hardcore band’s 20-minute masterpiece of powerviolence. The band wastes no time assaulting your pressure points with the extraordinary title song—after just 90 seconds, you’ll have to examine yourself for internal bleeding. “Violence Is Forever” detonates with relentless fury, punk rage, and metal force. The band’s commitment to life-threatening viciousness never falters. To punctuate that point, “In Pain” ramps up its rabid confrontation in the final seconds. After preparing you with nine abbreviated attacks, the eight-minute “They Come Crawling Back” recruits you for a truly apocalyptic epic.
