Anthropic - Architects Of Aggression (2020)

So if you think there's bands fast or extreme, you have another thing coming. Buckle your seatbelts. This is a brilliant combination of brutality. It displays the band’s wide array of talents; they do it all here. Each member of the band is in top form on their respective instrument. Jim hits the drums about as fast as humanly possible, the bass player attack without mercy. very solid guitar, with monster riffs and awesome fills. The guitar sounds very, very heavy, and incredibly crushing. You WILL bang your head. Vocals are incredible, unbelievably dark, deep, which sounds like a grizzly bear barking at you indecipherably. Too much emotion, sounding absolutely demented. Unbelievable!! He captures all your anger and frustration and turns it into sonic bliss. The production is superb for Grindcore. It’s crisp, it’s clear, you can hear every instrument. Everything sounds great. You can immediately distinguish each instrument and what they’re trying to do. It’s beautiful. It’s definitely ONE OF the best Grindcore albums I’ve heard in a while. All in all, I consider this album absolutely mandatory for Grindfreaks, or anyone curious about what is/was Grindcore, and why it’s a genre worth checking out. Thank you, Anthropic, for showing me the light once again !!
