│ While some bands may be content to keep playing various "fests" │
│ performing the same setlist from 25 years ago, Darkside NYC have │
│ just unleashed a monster of an album. │
│ │
│ Recorded and mixed at The Wild Arctic in Astoria, Queens, NY with │
│ Dean Baltulonis (Sick Of It All, Bouncing Souls, The Hope │
│ Conspiracy) and mastered at West West Side by Alan Douches (Misfits, │
│ Death, Dillinger Escape Plan, etc.), the songs range from │
│ devastatingly heavy to blistering speed to even straight-up "noise." │
│ │
│ │
│ If Celtic Frost and the Crumbsuckers shared a rehearsal space in │
│ 1987 and decided to drink a bottle of Ripple and record an album │
│ together while binging on crack cocaine, the result might be as │
│ crazy as "Optimism Is Self-Deception: Vols. 1 & 2." │
│ │
│ --Enjoy │
