I got turned on to this band a few years ago by Cosmo Lee when was still at the helm of Invisible Oranges. Helluva band. The noise rock flourishes make them stand out from a lot of the bands they get lumped in with. Their last album was one of my favs from 2013: https://beastwars.bandcamp.com/album/blood-becomes-fire |

Yep. Being from NZ I've seen them a heap of times. All really nice dudes. They're about to release their third album. This is my favourite tune... |

Just starting to get into these guys. I got "Blood Becomes Fire" and their S/T...Haven't fully digested them yet but like the S/T best so far. Cool band! It's also a plus that a white-haired, old guy with a white beard belts out some sick-ass vocals...as I am one, myself. It reminds me that it's never too late...even though it is...for me. Good shit! |

Now that I've had some quality time to listen to these guys, both of these releases are pretty, damn good. "Blood Becomes Fire" is more of a grower. The title track is awesome. Maybe it's just the bass but the music reminds me a lot of Unsane for some reason. These guys, Witchskull and the new Egypt have been the majority of my playlist lately. Good fuckn music! |

It is the bass...it's like the bass strings are made out of cable barely holding onto the neck. I hear Unsane too. Put the vocals aside for a moment, and the music reminds me even more specifically of late era Players Club, example below https://arclightrecords.bandcamp.com/track/the-e-m-p |

Dude thanks for this. These albums are sick! I definitely hear Unsane, but mostly I hear Crowbar. |

I hated them at first. But then I saw them in Melbourne, and they fucking crushed it. |

Their new record is right on coming off the other two. Has that same killer heaviness and maybe even a little more atmosphere in the groove. I've been digging it. |
