Nails - Abandon All Life
2013/ Hardcore, Grindcore
"Rejected from the start. Unleash the hatred within our hearts." From the first lines of "In Exodus" till the last lines of "Suum Cuique", this album is filled with hatred and frustration. Some bands are said to sound violent as hell, but Nails channels the sheer hatred into their music and manages to output it as probably one of the most violent sounding hardcore releases ever. If there was a soundtrack for pummeling the whole mankind to death, this would be on it.
The music itself has quite a lot of variation if you compare it to some hardcore/grindcore releases. There is a reason why 'Abandon All Life' was critically acclaimed: it's one of the best albums out of its genre. The transitions from slower breakdowns, which are executed just the way they are meant to, into an utter barrage of fury. This is one of the albums I'd recommend to people, who are interested in diving into the world of grindcore or hardcore. Favourite song: "Wide Open Wound."
