Cover Art by Mark “skinny” Orton. “Thought-provoking monologues and confrontational lyrics bring you on a cold, doom-laden journey of perpetual war, psychological mind control and disillusionment.” “If you yearn for the glory days of UK crust punk, when no one could touch bands like Antisect, Amebix and Anti-System for both their integrity and intensity, yearn no more, because their spirit lives on here. Muscling through ten tracks of metallic punk, so thick, primal and ferocious, it feels hewn from the very earth itself, they rage against the many injustices mankind inflicts upon the natural world with a terrifying conviction. The incisive savage riffing of ‘Brought To Our Knees’ recalls Sacrilege at the peak of their powers, whilst epic noisescapes like ‘Fortress’ wipe the floor with your bleeding Neurosis. Immense and empowering, this is essential. [8.5] IAN GLASPER” - Ian Glasper, Terrorizer (Feb 02, 2014) “CVLT Nation’s Top 6 Crust Albums 2013: The band have member links to Rainbow Grave, Cain, Doom, Sore Throat, Filthkick, Sensa Yuma etc. Their new album ‘Confined’ sticks to their cynical view of the world mixed with innovative guitar textures and driving industrial intensity. Thought-provoking monologues and confrontational lyrics bring you on a cold, doom-laden journey of perpetual war, psychological mind control, disillusionment and omnipresent bullshitt. For a band that has been knocking about on and off for twenty years, they could be forgiven for reverting to the formulaic. However, they rethink and deliver a furious maelstrom of complex dark hardcore, best served cold.” - CVLT Nation (Dec 19, 2013)
