Pathetic Flesh

"On their first vinyl effort, Asid's almost monomaniacal devotion to gutting hardcore of it's accretions of style and refinement and reveling in it's basest instincts of power and fury is on rude display. Pounding forward with a jackhammer beat, Asid burn through tough riffs birthed choking in a dirty glut of muggy fuzz that conjures up the sickened tone of something like Disclose's Nightmare Or Reality 12". Pathetic Flesh is an intense explosion of a record, chucking up the rudimentary stomp of 'Fever', the brawny pogo of 'Bootlicker', the panic-stricken downhill rush of the title track. This record is a total hardcore statement, with stunning art from the singer Tin, whose tortured yell struggles painfully against the storm of the noise, breaking through with ugly anguish." -Joe Briggs
