Review by: Alex Deller
About umpteen fucking trillion tracks of goresoaked tech-grind here for your vampirous delectation, blitzing through mechanically efficient riffs a la Brutal Truth, HeWhoCorrupts or Discordance Axis and mixing those razor-edged complexities with occasional bouts of irreverent, anything-goes strangeness that bring a band like Swarrrm to mind. Colon-loosening grunts are temporarily traded for deranged jabberings or spoken word pieces; killer riffs momentarily make way for experimental passages and, at one point, something sounding like the steel drum effect on a cheap keyboard totters out of control before common sense once again takes hold. Though these zany ways certainly serve to carve up the mayhem they don’t necessarily provide any long-lasting kicks, and while there’s plenty of carnage to be enjoyed when Fuck the Facts decide to play it straight, you may well find yourself judiciously skipping certain tracks (their tongue-in-cheek Master of Puppets bastardisation and beyond-dumb foray into hip hop spring rapidly to mind…) for a more satisfying grind experience.
