A industrial callous, caustic and fervently cruel EP. Contort Yourself has once again gathered the best and boldest from past and present for its fourth EP. To begin with we have the grimacing visage of Volition Immanent, an intense live act made up of Parrish Smith and Mark Van de Maat (Knekelhuis). Behind rawkish distortion, splintered beats and acrid bars screams a boiled anger, a track spitting on the divides of punk and electronics. Nastiness is taken up a notch as noise ne er-do-wells Zombies Under Stress take over. Static is bent and doubled across thick chords and collapsed clap in the 1986 -Maan Zal Zijn before the raw and raging battery of In Onze Tijd. L.I.E.S. regular Svengalisghost grapples with Maan Zal Zijn, channelling the originals rage into a mechanical monster. The 12inch is bookended with bite as Mark Forshaw (Tabernacle/Berceuse Heroique) closes with the tortured and torrential thump of Submission.
