Agoraphobic Nosebleed
"Agorapocalypse"
Label: Relapse
Nosebleed in all its glory! Grindcore in all its glory! With all these elements that define this kind of music, short timing tracks (3 minutes most), sharp blasts of anger with drum-machine in programming of 1000 BPM from Scott Hull (check ″Altered States Of America″). Agorapocalypse is the 4th one full-length album from Agoraphobic Nosebleed (ANB) from Springfield of Massachusetts U.S.A. This album is really a revelation labeled by Relapse Records. Containing elements such as sludge / thrashcore & grind, of course, the album’s 13 tracks are full of anger, intense, speed, ″massacre″. Scott Hull (Pig Destroyer, Anal Cunt, Japanese Torture Comedy Hour) is of course responsible for the drum programming devastation while the schizophrenic package is completed by Katherine Katz (Salome), who is going wild with her beefy screams, Jay Randall from Isis and Richard Johnson from Enemy Soil, Drugs Of Faith, Jesus Of Nazareth. The top tracks of this album are ″Agorapocalypse Now″, ″Moral Distortion″ (that includes Kat’s quote: ″Musicians cannot play a single note unless they eat drugs first″) and ″Hung From The Rising Sun″. For fans of Pig Destroyer, Brutal Truth, Graf Orlock, ″Agorapocalypse″ is struggling to be one of this year’s best albums.
