This excellent collection of songs culled from various demos and a 7″ makes you sad that the band can’t get together enough to write more songs more often. Formed from the ashes of such Scottish hardcore luminaries as Shank, Scatha and In Decades Decline, The Process go down the Cleveland style of hardcore (or so I’m told) route and jam some straight up power fucking violent hardcore action in there too. It’s the very epitome of tough hardcore that isn’t boneheaded in the slightest. It’s also surprisingly catchy, maybe in part due to the simplicity, but mainly down to the great songwriting that means you have riffs you can positively take a bite out of, all diminished fifths and speedy runs. Nae messin’.
