Deserves To Die
DESERVES TO DIE
GRIND THAT AXE RECORDS 14.1.08

 At first I thought these lads were being a bit harsh on themselves with a name like that. After all, they are from Yorkshire so they can’t be all bad but after a few tracks, I came to agree with them, sad waste of life though it is.

Allegedly, Lamb Of God fans would like this and with song titles like ‘Torn Beyond Self Demise’ and ‘She Screamed Hatred’, this screamo band might attract interest from that crowd but they rapidly demonstrate the opposite of their track (I hesitate to call it a song…) ‘The Irony Isn’t Lost On Me’.

Headache-inducing is not a problem – I LIKE noise. Problem is, this is boring and, yeah, maybe the album does ‘deserve to die’.
