Landmine Marathon – RUSTED EYES AWAKE

The female fronted grindcore band, Landmine Marathon, has just reissued their 2008 release RUSTED EYES AWAKE. At a time when bands are seeking to be fastest or the most technical, Landmine Marathon heeds the age old motto Keep It Simple, Stupid, and revert back to the roots of this extreme form of music. Sounding often like a combination of Napalm Death, Bolt Thrower, and Terrorizer, Landmine Marathon offers blast beats combined with brutal guitar riffing and screaming vocals that often lead to heavy break down riffs, with double vocals, and harmonized rhythms.
The CD plays in under a little 32 minutes, which is a little short for my tastes, but thankfully none of the 8 tracks are filler tracks. Each and every song kicks ass! Those of you who enjoy this era of metal, are going to love this CD.  I know I did!
