about

6 songs, 6 minutes, 3/5ths of Narcosis. that'll do for the numbers. The Ergon Carousel bring us a blitzkreig bop of ridiculously fast and awesome grind which sounds a bit like getting punched in the face by an angry hummingbird wearing boxing gloves occasionally taking a split second break to remember why it hates you. Perhaps a surprising release for Holy Roar and limited to just a hundred copies, opener 'Sum Of Nothing' begins soaked in feedback like some doom band's lost first demo but comes out of the starting blocks quicker than something very quick and it's pretty relentless stuff throughout, despite a mosh-friendly breakdown in 'Hindsight Is A Wonderful Thing When You Don't Mean It' and a little bit of Daughters-esque guitar riffery in 'City Of Ghosts'. There are many blastbeats here, which are so fast I imagine the drummer to be in one of those cartoon fights where there would just be a rotating cloud of smoke with arms and legs flailing out of it. I would love to see this band live, I hope there will be gurning.
