Lamp's Review:
I want to start off by saying this is some fast stuff.  Blazing crossover clocking in at 16 tracks in about the same amount of time, shredding guitars, lightning paced vocals, quick drumming.  Nothing too serious either, topics ranging from getting drunk at parties to killing monsters, these guys may not take themselves too seriously, but they play their music passionately.  The timing is ultra-tight through the whole record, not a note missed, not a word forgotten, not a beat skipped.

I'll also say I didn't know it was possible to put so many divebombs in such a short time period, I may be exaggerating but there's one in almost every
song (Toxic Revolution has about seven or so) and it just really stood out to me for some reason.  It gives the music more of its metal edge, but at the same time, there is a strong punk sense much like bands such as DRI or Stormtroopers Of Death.  So if you're into punk or metal and you like it fast, check these guys out.  They're touring all over the place, so catch them if they play a show near you.
