I've already lost count of how many times I said that the British people are extremely mad and resourceful in musical matters. British bands are very special and therefore they don't usually have lots of fans. That Atomçk, for example, is definitely not for everyone. The guys from South Wales play very specific music. I do not know what lives in their heads, but it's just very sick and evil. Guys break all possible limits, and they successfully mix sludge, grind, stoner, black metal and, of course, noise in their tracks. The theme of their songs is very social. Cover art is appropriate, these riots and protests, fucking redneck cops and more, but all this shit, according to the name of the album, never work(s). The power of the human passion for freedom can not be stopped.
It all starts with a nice melodic stoner rock, somehow you do not suspect what kind of fucked up shit is waiting for you. Somewhere only in the middle of the first song it becomes clear what to expect next. By the way, rather strange, but most of the songs on this album last no more than a minute. After the first track, the guys are already on full speed and do not stop until the end. They kick your ass with fast and aggressive deathgrind with a bunch of stylish inserts. It's nice that the guys use a lot of different vocals. Ultra-high hysterical, sometimes raucous scream, a bit of growl. Those bits of hysterical vocals add some crazy atmosphere. Incidentally, after the main part, there is a nice bonus in the form of Live records.
