INQUISITION


This time it's the presentation more than the tracks themselves, because I don't think you can try to sound like this. The snare drum is like a damp dish rag and the guitars are tinny, marginally in tune and always slightly off time, all of which stands in contract to fiercely snarled and always out of breath vocals and a vicious approach to sharp, bare bones hardcore punk.The breakdown in "Holy War" is where it all really clicked for me - even though the demo was nearly over by that point....but that's where the phrase "turn it over" comes in.
