| The production on this record is well-balanced, with plenty of low-end |
| matched by guitars and cymbals which rise above it. Revenge's sound |
| remains remarkably coherent even when everything's blasting; both J. |
| Read's drumming and the lead guitar are equally easy to follow, giving |
| this record surprising depth. |
| |
| The last record was a little different -- a bit more complex, a bit slower |
| in places -- but on Scum.Collapse.Eradication the band manages to combine |
| that approach with the feral insanity of their first two records, |
| retaining the full impact of both. The result just might be the best |
| Revenge record of all time: packed with crushing slow parts, tempo |
| changes, and surprisingly memorable riffs amidst a torrent of raging, |
| frothing hatred. The vocals are a cut above as well, belched and snarled |
| and bellowed, sometimes pitch-shifted, vomiting pure aggression all over |
| each and every track. "Scorned Detractor" is a perfect example, with a |
| vocal intro that has to be heard to be believed. I don't even miss Pete |
| Helmkamp on this record, and I doubt I'll ever type *that* sentence twice! |
| |
| This is still Revenge, though, and that means that everyone will either |
| hate it or love it; what you hear is what you get, and what you get is |
| thirty-five minutes worth of pummelling blasts and churning guitars. If |
| that's what you're looking for you'll be well-pleased by this; most of the |
| album is a frantic paean to grinding chaos, especially "Parasite Gallows |
| (In Line)" and "Banner Degradation (Exile or Death)". Not one millisecond |
| of this will be a let-down to anyone familiar with Revenge; as always, the |
| ferocity of this band stands unparalleled. Despite ten years of copycat |
| bands no one has ever managed to outdo Revenge... and if this record is |
| any indication, perhaps no one ever will. Scum.Collapse.Eradication earns |
| my highest recommendation. |
