review by eddie

northampton based old school hardcore! containing plenty of energy and raw aggression, there is an air of punk in the house, but not that popular shite, this is the real deal. the band also make use of some rather creative songwriting with some slap style shit on the bass here and there, and riffs aplenty. the guitars come across rich and crisp in the kind of production oh-so suited to this style of extreme music. vocally n.b.c. have anger by the bucket load. hard ass shouting is the order of the day accompanied by the occasional burst of gang backing vocals, both bassist and drummer back up the stressy front man with some hoarse snarls and some grunty bellows! drumming wise they are tight and precise and some impressive agility is shown while bustin' them skins. these guys have paid their dues live, playing gigs up and down the country making them tight as a camel's arse in a sandstorm, their live show is frantic and aggressive and that's pretty well captured on this here cd. unfortunately the packaging is a total let down considering the artistic talents of their bassist, who should get his mustachio ass in gear and do his band some fuckin' justice. overall this cd is a damn fine listen and genuinely enjoyable, admittedly i am not a massive fan of hardcore, but there are a few bands that stand out and not by choice are definitely one.
