Smear Campaign 2006

"While not progressive at all, the tracks on "Smear Campaign" er perhaps more complex than one might expect. Although the average song length is some 3 minutes long, virtually every song is packed with several riffs and figures ranging from frenzied blast beat accompanied noise riffs over catchy mosh friendly riffs to complex tech riffs with advanced chords; every song contains enough riffs for two or three standard rock songs. Certainly, this is quality stuff. I like Barney Greenway's grunting orc-like vocals, but I must admit I tend to giggle at Mitch Harris' high pitched screaming."
