Sturdy chunk o’ crusty hardcore here that really puts me in mind of late 90s Prank Records: Deathreat, Talk Is Poison, Artimus Pyle and a healthy glug of ‘Fifteen Counts Of Arson’. This means there’s a sense of desperate forward motion to ‘Systematization’, a muscular surge that’s been shot through with stabby, off-kilter melodic parts. Vocalist Mark Telfian (Hail Mary, Eucharist, Under Attack etc.) snarls and berates, adding to the furious clamour while raising the bar with some neat turns of phrase and interesting cadences. The end results are extremely satisfying: urgent and furious, with flashpoints of ‘huh, that’s pretty cool’ individuality that add something fresh and unexpected to the mix.
