KILL DIVISION

 








"peace through tyranny"
Year:  2022
Country:  US
City:  Florida
Label:  Redefining Darkness
Format:  CD, LP
Tracks:  11
Time:  24 min.
Genre:  rock
Style:        Grindcore












Kill Division are a grindcore act that embody and honor the essence of grind's humble beginnings from luminaries in the scene.

"Kill Division’s Peace Through Tyranny is so damn catchy, expertly played, and ferocious, which makes this one of the best grind albums I’ve heard in decades. Catchy grindcore is tough to pull off but each song on this album is catchier than the previous one. This is the best grind album of 2022 and if you can’t get enough of Napalm Death, Terrorizer, Misery Index, Squash Bowels, Nasum etc.. and really need something new to melt you and your pet goldfish’ face off then this is a Buy or Die of the highest order. This KILLZ!!!!",
- Frank Rini, Teeth of the Divine

"Kill Division set out to deliver something that embodies the chaos of grind in its purest form and get anyone and everyone pumped from listening to it. It’s a simple and effective approach, made all the more enjoyable because the talent in this band are capable of doing it justice.
Don’t over-think it. Just press play and be consumed by the ferocity of unmitigated grinding heavy metal at its best.
- Games, Brrraaains, & a Headbanging Life

"The debut of Kill Division (by the way, what a name adequate to the content) is half an hour of barbarism at the highest level. Yes, you can find some similarities to Napalm Death with Pintado era or early Terrorizer (we even have a cover of "Barely Alive" for dessert), but Kyle&co. so intelligently melt everything into their own style that there's noother way but to take the hats off. An absolutely crushing album, you may say, the younger brother of "World Downfall" from year twenty-two. There will be no better album in this genre this year. It's done!"
- Apocalyptic Rites

" It is very obvious that they love this style of music it and it comes completely naturally to them. Because the sounds of our youth are always there in us and returning to them is always familiar. From fans to fans of the good old grindcore."
- Rockway.gr

"After almost 24 minutes it's over (much too quickly). Peace Through Tyranny doesn't reinvent the genre wheel, but it does everything right. Big wrecking balls meet clumsy lumps of lead, the production is wonderfully rough, the presentation is fun from start to finish. You shouldn't expect miracles from Kill Division, but their debut is more than entertaining and cleverly plays off the class of individualists as an uncompromising, biting unit."

EMBOLISM

 









"love existence"
Year:  2018
Country:  Slovakia
City:  Kanianka
Label:  SMA
Format:  CD
Tracks:  12
Time:  28 min.
Genre:  rock
Style:        Grindcore













EMBOLISM are stick to the old, honest grindcore practices. The gentlemen have released a recording that is very well sounded, has an interesting cover and, most importantly, cuts by the right side of the knife. Twelve sharp tracks, full of motifs, sophisticated texts, and deadly heavy moods, hurt like a crooked boot in the face. Slovak maniacs definitely does not belong to "old iron". They will kick your ass, wash totally your brains. As if someone was polishing his head with acid. The album has everything I need for my rest in the morgue - the pressure, energy, dirt, darkness and bloody strength that we all like in this style. What about the dead bodies coming back to life and wanting to kill me? After all, I'm actually here. To enjoy the end of the world to jump out of the podium and put in like, very good albums. "Love Existence" does not have any novelties, the band sticks to the predefined barrier, but they manage their craft great. Grindcore machine that wakes the dead!

WORMROT









"hiss"
Year:  2022
Country:  Singapore
City:  Singapore
Label:  Earache
Format:  CD, LP
Tracks:  21
Time:  32 min.
Genre:  rock
Style:        Grindcore












“This is the end/ Consuming your lies/ Drown in despair/ You chose this life,” Wormrot declares as the opening salvo of their new record, Hiss. Fans would be forgiven for taking the Singapore act at their word: when news dropped earlier this year that vocalist Arif and manager Azean would be departing the band, it seemed like the end for the grindcore veterans.

If this is, in fact, the end, it’s a hell of a way to go - complex and potent, Hiss is a grindcore masterpiece. Long by the genre’s standards and densely packed with details, Wormrot’s fourth full-length contains some of the band’s best ideas to date. Arif has left big shoes to fill, with a virtuosic vocal performance nestled amid thundering drums (as on “Pale Moonlight”) and thrashed-out hardcore (“When Talking Fails, It’s Time for Violence”). There’s even a track (“Unrecognizable”) that, true to the genre, packs a punch in just 10 vicious seconds. One hopes remaining members Rasyid and Vijesh still have some gas in the tank after the ferocity of Hiss.

Voices was a good preview of the band’s ability to use one of extreme music’s most concise genres to thread ideas together, but Hiss is the rare grind record that coheres front to back. Anchored by longer tracks like “Voiceless Choir,” the album traces a clear musical arc that sees Wormrot take excursions into death metal riffage, black metal speed, and muscular, classic hardcore punk. The band seamlessly shifts between modes without jarring the listener, deploying moments of circumspection and even soaring riffage before getting right back into the melee. There’s just enough time to marvel before the noise starts back up.

Closer “Glass Shards” brings all these elements together in one final display. It opens like a black metal anthem, reaches post-hardcore pinnacles by the middle and closes with a soaring string arrangement. After the final violins dissolve into the last punctuating chords, a brief sample of lapping waves offers a brief respite from the madness. Ironically, the watery ambience that bookends this pulverizing half-hour of music is vital to setting the scene for the mayhem within; palliative ASMR balanced with brain-scrambling grooves.

With Hiss, Wormrot have made a piece of art that reaches far beyond grindcore while honoring the subgenre’s unique characteristics. If this was Wormrot’s last word on the subject, they’ve at least created an artifact that points the way forward for the bands who follow.
