Dreadeye-The World Has Left Us Behind LP (2019)

Country: USA
Genre: Hardcore, Punk, Powerviolence, Experimental Noise
Label: Iron Lung
Tracks: 16
Length: 15.15'

 The World Has Left Us Behind is a perfect title for this manic chunk of listening as it does not seem to fit in to any genre whatsoever. Its got the most twisted ultra blown out guitar sound yet overall hi-fi recording style you've ever heard and they like to chop up the power violence blasts by having different guest artists do introduction and interlude tracks that range from harsh noise to electronic music to hip hop beats. On paper you'd think this wouldn't work but the final listen has us in a very specific mindset of unpleasantness and discomfort. In short this LP is completely mental. Top all that off with graffiti riddled artwork nodding to the backyard PCP stylings of early 90's southern California gangster PV. Certified street music. You're not ready.
