Brutal, brutal, brutal, relentless, and brutal., January 26, 2008

Viscera
In a nutshell, Viscera is a relentless and heavy barrage of staccato beats, punctuated with tense, minimal melodies and harsh noise. Like the other review, aside from the one semi-miss on the CD ("Mindless Brutal Apparatus") the album latches on to you at the first sound and doesn't stop pummeling. Unlike many other artists in the loose genre of rhythmic noise, many of these songs are marginally similar, which sets up a neat contrast between the songs' inherently chaotic nature. I can listen to this for hours on end.

Pneumatic Detach returns to Hive Records (they were Hive's first non-compilation release) with the furiously anthemic Vis·Cer·A, a record of the second style that keeps the rhythms bone-crushingly fierce without resorting to over-saturation of the noise and distortion. It is a finesse crusher, a beat-down that travels up and down your musculoskeletal system like tiny jackhammers, bludgeoning each cluster of sinew and each bridge of bone."Moment of Comprehension" pounds you Tarmvred-style, and each hammer impact rattles all the way up through your molars. A melody whistles and cavorts behind the curtain...
