On PPOOWWEERRVVIIOOLLEENNCCEE and GGRRIINNDDCCOORREE logically must DDEEAATTHHMMEETTAALL consequences: Grind School are dedicated to a year and a half after the second long player Memory Theatre the third part of their genre EP series.

The trio from Ithaca emphasizes their stylistic preferences for death metal, in keeping with the title (“one of the most important and influential metal subgenres for each of the members“) and shifts the traditional grindcore into a throttled bulldozer mode, which suits the band absolutely splendidly despite all its ugliness (and using a genetic spectrum that is inherently strong in character).
Ball and Chain rolls extremely heavy, screws massive riffs and growling heaviness into his stoically condensed nihilism. Although ticking Grind School They also repeatedly use the accelerator pedal spastically, but they express their inner Crust Punk so angrily on a leash decorated with aggressive barbed wire that they torture their neck muscles, as if they were deliberately slowing down the acceleration.
Punishment Ritual thrashy rocking with a 90s nu/groove metal aftertaste (which makes the hatefully barking Meat Magnet with a fiddling fist Slayer-Departure and Napalm Death-Guest performance will lead to a far too abrupt end and thus a finale that leaves the suspense unevenly broken). Abyssal Plane stomping as a poisonous cascade. The songwriting, the energetic performance and the raucous sound are just right for almost 13 minutes: DDEEAATTHHMMEETTAALL is an early highlight of the year between the genres (even if it comes with a small flaw in the ending, but is more convincing due to its consistency than individual highlights).
