WORDS THAT BURN

Spawing Ground For Hatred

CD



"This is some intense and vile material right here. Words that Burn play an insane mix of crust, grind, hardcore and metal with fast as hell songs, blazing riffs that stick to your brain and some seriously insane vocal tradeoffs mixing blood curdling growls and high pitched screams/shouts. These guys lay down some serious damage for only a three piece, that's for certain. Despite the speed on display here, Words that Burn have an extremely dense sound that gives you a claustrophobic feeling as if you're head will explode at any moment. The band focuses not only on delivering fast songs but playing them as heavy as possible for an extremely bulldozing listening experience. This effectis probably due to the bludgeoning low end present here, as there is a very heavy rhythm section nailing things down on every song. The whole record kind of reminds me of what Phobia might sound like if they were a little less grind and focused more on the crust elements of their sound. The record moves along at a pretty fast clip with very little slowdown, although every now and then the band hits a devastating slower riff that will really kick your teeth in (check out the doomy intro of "Drained Reaction"). This is an essential album for all crust/grind fanatics out there, very highly recommended stuff with great lyrics and an awesome layout by CAH Records as usual
