The Illinois, U.S. death squad Hatemonger enters Metal Archives with this five-song 22-minute recording. Bouncing between uptempo brutality and blazing speeds, the contrast keeps the highs high, with a few well-placed high valleys to remind the listener to appreciate the differences. The Chicagoland band does a good job of keeping a heavy but uptempo, downtuned guitar buzzsaw speed, including blasting. Certainly, fans of no-nonsense, headbanging extremity should consider finding out what this recording has to offer. It is not melodic, but it is also not technical nor prog, which means that the energy and the solid songwriting keeps the moshing listener entertained. The vocals are rather low, a bit more like a cavernous style, as is the whole recording. However, it does not sound like a no-experience-no-money bedroom death grind demo, and there is a level of seriousness and professionalism that is easy to notice. Fans of downtuned buzzsaw guitar and blasting may want to turn their steering wheels towards Hatemonger.
