Genre: Crustcore
Origin: USA
Released: 2005

These Americans seems to draw influences from both the American and Swedish scene. Or maybe it's just American Scandicrust scene, hehe. Anyway, it naturally reminds me of Masskontroll, State of Fear and the likes.
Damn fine music here. Pummelling riffs, wicked solos and great drumming. The two guitarist's and the bass player shares the vocal duties, though I don't think I notice more than two different vocals... Well, except in the choruses. What I find interesting here is that all members are male (unless they have the bearded lady in the band), but one of the main vocals sure sounds female. Don't know why/how, but I like it!
I would probably put on a State of Fear record before Dissystema, but this is great crustcore with great sound.
