SEIZURE CRYPT
"Under the Gun" (Ladies Choice Records; 2009)
Reviewed by R. Scott Bolton
Seizure Crypt's "Under the Gun" is borderline outright chaos. It's a wild, unrepentant combination of punk, hardcore and pure insanity. Think Fear meets Dillinger Escape Plan meets the Beastie Boys and you'll begin to get an idea.
Surprisingly, the CD is almost instantly addictive and, like the best (or worst) drugs, the more you listen the more you want.
The band has no fear about being caustic, either, and I'm talking both about lyrical content and their scathing music attitude.
Not for everyone perhaps, but for those who like their music aggressive and wild, "Under the Gun" is a unique listen that will beat its way into your brain and probably stay there are long time.

Rating Guide:
A classic. This record will kick your ass.
Killer. Not a classic but it will rock your world.
So-so. You've heard better.
Pretty bad. Might make a nice coaster.
Self explanatory. Just the sight of the cover makes you wanna hurl.
