BURNOUT


This thing is fukkn filthy. Too often, shit this fierce is marred by over (or under) production or a pretension in presentation that distracts (or detracts) from the bands' urgency. BURNOUT is nothing if not urgent, and even though there are only four songs on this tour tape their statement is crystal clear....and it is terrifying. Listen to "up against the wall" at the 0:37 mark of "Enemy" just as the hyper mini mosh part drops after the band slows to a deadly crawl - these fools just crush. The subtlety of a steamroller when they take their time, the intensity of a crack head who just won $250 playing Scratchers when they pick up the pace. Seven minutes is not enough.
