CoC : DOA - New York City Speedcore : Review

DOA - _New York City Speedcore_
(Earache, 1997)
by: Adrian Bromley (8 out of 10)

Drowning in some of the most powerful techno hardcore beats and sounds, as well as fusing together sinister screams of rage and momentous walls of noise comes New York's Disciples of Annihilation (D.O.A) delivering the goods. No question about it, this stuff is heavy. Laced in serious hardcore techno and gabber (200+ beats per minute), DOA storm through powerful concoction after powerful concoction of sound styles as well as bringing into play samples, industrial metal qualities and noise. Lots of noise. While the music on _NYCS_ rotates in sound and style, there is no question that every song is delivered with full-force and intensity. Numbers that'll knock you silly include: "Total Annihilation", "Extreme Gansta", "You're Dead", and the title track. I recomend this release for anyone that craves noise/industrial/extreme music bands.
