DiE - Vexed - 7

Labels: Sonic Terror Discs
Review by: Alex Deller

Way more impressed with this one than I was expecting to be. DiE, who I’m sure I must have seen live more than a couple of times, play great, ripping hardcore that couples yobby stomps with the kind of blurred distortion that makes me feel chunks of my brain are being sucked through a thin glass tube. It’s raw and nasty enough that you feel it might completely lose its marbles at any point and yet it’s able to keep a song on the go long enough for it to lodge in your head “” no mean feat, and definitely traits to be lauded from a band who are a clear cut above so many of the other manglers out there.
