The Beast
Has Arrived
[Napalm]


I bet looking at this goofy bald guy you are expecting a Billy Milano-type moshfest, eh? Nope. More thrashy. More punky. Similar to Warfare or Tank. Very metal guitar sound (like Ottawa's Exciter) with snotty punk riffs mixed in. Cheezy lyrics, could have been written by the tough kid in your grade 5 class (eg."McDonalds Man"), "Bloodbath" and "Death Rattle" are decent. "World In Flames" is stoner Sabbath/Trouble metal. Psychedelic effects on vocals and guitars; "World In Flames" reminds me a LOT of The Melvins. "Skullbutt" picks up the pace again...then the goddamn needle on my turntable decides to skip to the end of the record! Sonofabitch! OK, clean all the dust off. Yeah! Sheeetahh! Anyone into Warfare, Venom's punkier riffs, Tank, Exploited & GBH's more "metal" sound, WITH a big honkin heapin cheese factor, MIGHT enjoy this joke album/ band. (This had to have been a joke, especially with the silly photos on the back, and the flyer for merchandise).

And no ChorazaiM, NOT everything will be released on CD. Look at this goddamn cover! You know what a fuckin moron I am for buying this?! I can't believe I actually bought this at the Record Peddler... LAST YEAR! Now, Larm staff and visitors will point at me and say, "He bought that, so he must be as retarded as that clown on the cover").
