I let it languish in "to listen to" purgatory for a few weeks before giving Peace a chance, and lemme tell ya True Believer, this would give yer fave Beatle tinnitus (though, if yer fave mop top is John, you should take a good long look inside yerself).</p><p>The vocals are ugly and sit just right in the mix, thankfully resisting any contemporaneous inclinations to hide like a coward under mommy's blankie, layered under endless reverb. Just the classic "rabid dog hardcore" type shit we know and love.</p><p>Their five originals call to mind Michigan's BORN WITHOUT A FACE: mean, driving, metal-tinged hardcore punk.
