Free Music Review: A thing of rare beauty
Hit: 5 Stars
Premonitions of War' "Left in Kowloon" is a thing of rare beauty. From the mysterious urban visuals to the cinematic lyrics, the packaging is clean, dark, and abstract. But the true beauty lies in the brutality underneath. While the album is on Victory, a label associated with hardcore (and more recently with metalcore), it has much more in common with the grindcore of Pig Destroyer or Napalm Death. Fueled by downtuned riffs, crushing blastbeats, and roaring vocals, 12 tracks blaze by in just over 26 minutes. The first 5 tracks are minute-long mercy killings; the astounding "Black Den" then slows the pace with haunting, sludgy riffs. After the industrial ambience of "Cables Hum Overhead," the madness resumes. The latter half of the album adds tempo changes and Sabbath-esque grooves, while spaciously dissonant chords throughout lift this band above the "-core" pack. Rarely has such brutality had such depth.
