I�ve never heard either of these bands, and to tell you the truth I�ve never even heard of them. But boy oh boy, I will without a doubt look up Androphagous, as they open up with thirteen tracks of totally in your face old school grindcore. The brutal, fast blasting just reeks of Repulsion and Terrorizer, but with the addition of a slightly different riffing than said bands, they add a touch of the classic Swedish vibe to the mangling. And that Swedish vibe has a more melodic (dare I say melodic when I�m talking about a grindcore act?) riffing than the purely old school acts, instead of the just ultra brutal pummeling that we know from the past. The speed is set at an almost constant fast forward, with the exception for the slower, yet still grinding, sections of the tunes. And the harsh screaming just gets the blood pumping. Simply put just relentless grindcore!
Now Toxic Revolution on the other hand differs quite a bit from their split mates, as they present a hardcore/crustcore mix, sped up to grindcore. Unfortunately the tracklist on the back is all messed up, and I don�t have the energy to try and figure out which song�s which. And that sucks � a lot! �Cause now I can�t tell you which song I�m really talking about when I say that their sound can definitely differ. Some stuff is almost pure From Ashes Rise-like gloomy hardcore, while a couple of tracks remind me of Agathocles, some gets me thinking of Obligatorisk Tortyr, and others are just insane grindcore. But what all tracks have in common is loads of energy and wicked dual vocals. Great stuff that�s sure to get the adrenaline rushing.
