“spazz”

Spazz

Crush Kill Destroy

Slap-A-Ham

Spazz in full effect once again for twenty-five songs in just over nineteen minutes. Blasting hardcore speed interspersed with right proper breakdowns and the occasional sample break. Lyrics can be serious, totally obscure references (“gibberish”), cleverly funny or some odd mixture of all three. Songs like the ode to “go!” (“Let’s Fucking Go!!!”), “Cool Guy,” and “Complete And Utter Eradication of All Generic Pop-Punk (Extended Version)” are fucking classic. Oh, and here’s an ironic one – “Hoarder” takes a stab at neurotic record collectors.

Like taking a pounding from some witty bastards. Great all the way through.
