5.0 out of 5 stars pure genius, October 15, 2002

By	Jenny Cadaver "jennycadaver" (Gotham City Sewers, 3rd Fortress of Evil on the left) - See all my reviews

Omigoddess, I'm glad to see this album again! No, it's not ND's fastest/ bloodiest/ grindcoriest album, and yes, it's attempting a benchmark. But I think it actually succeeds-- it's definitely more layered, say, (the magnificent) Harmony Corruption. And some tracks get downright creepy, "Contemptuous", for example, a wonderful echoing stomp. And you even get the patented throat-bleeding Barney Scream on a few songs to feed your bloodlust. Top picks: "Contemptuous", "I Abstain", "Got Time to Kill", "Dementia Access".

5.0 out of 5 stars a classic, February 16, 1999

By A Customer

Probably the greatest grindcore album ever recorded from the originators of the sound. If youre interested in what the whole sounds about, check this album out.

NAPALM'S SECOND BEST ALBUM--F.E.T.O. BEING THE FIRST.ALL TRACKS ARE AMAZING AND BLISTERINGLY CRAZY, BUT THE BEST TRACK HAS TO BE CHRISTENING OF THE BLIND.IF YOU WANT INSANELY HEAVY GRIND,BY THE ALBUM!!!!!ND ARE SIMILAR TO CEPHALIC CARNAGE AND NASUM.
