Noisy, grungy, shouty, experimental: I'm sure that's the effect that Leicester's Public Relations Exercise are going for here. The sheer aggression is what hits you on this CD to show you don't need metallic blast beats and constant ear piercing screams to hit the listener in the gut. There's a tonne of technicality here which is sure to be appreciated, but they don't go overboard, making this still easily head-noddable and danceable.
I'm listening to this and liking it, but it's only when I get to Catalyst that I really start to enjoy it, I don't have a fucking clue what the singer is shouting about but it's tirelessly energetic and the singer sounds like he's singing it while walking over hot coals, with a top-class mixture of rising and falling vocal lines.
This is great music that makes me want to shake about like I'm being exorcised.
