To me, this is the holy grail of 90s metalcore, 32 minutes of nothing but fat grooves and aggressive hardcore vocals, yet it manages to be relatively hooky throughout. It's reminiscent of Helmet, only turned up to eleven, and as much as I love that band, the increased aggression here appeals to me even more. Even though it's a pretty meat and potatoes old school metalcore record, it never feels monotonous, thanks to the short and tightly constructed songs that always know when to ... read more
This slaps so damn hard that it’s not even funny. The drums are pummeling, the vocalist’s lung capacity is ridiculously high, and every riff goes harder than Waka Flocka Flame when he’s in the mf paint and he leaves you stankin, after which he asks you what the f you were thankin.
That snare is a bit painful but the record as a whole is everything you could've asked for in an early Metalcore record: Raw anger, fierce riffs with punchy instrumentation and ass whooping breakdowns
Kinda surprised how little attention this gets, cause gotDAMN!!!

this album is in kind of a weird spot where it is pretty universally respected in the metalcore scene but isn't talked about nearly as much as albums by other '90s giants such as botch or earth crisis. hell, i feel like i hear more about cave in than i do snapcase, which is a shame because snapcase could be one of the best '90s core bands
