Oh no, it's just too monotonous. At first, I kind of liked this precise, mechanical riffing and stiff bellowing, but after a while it turned into humdrum barking, and I couldn't even listen to the entire record in one sitting. I eventually ended up selling the damn thing. These guys are the leading band in the ultra-militant, straight-edge wing of the American hardcore scene. Their lyrics are full of the burning issues of the day like animal rights, racism and so on, but the music is so tiresome that you are too worn out to care. Plenty of people out there adore this band, but I am not one of them because there are enough bands in the genre who make much more interesting music.
