Millennial Psychosis features two of the best up-and-coming hardcore bands that the U.K. has to offer. If you haven't picked up on these two yet, you're missing out.
Brain Dead offer up four songs of punishing hardcore/powerviolence that would do the likes of Infest proud. This U.K. four-piece unleashes a visceral assault onto the listener with blazing riffs and pummeling drums. The vocals are delivered in a forceful bark that compliments the music perfectly.
On the opposite side Rot in Hell deliver a one-two punch of holy terror influenced metallic hardcore with “The Barrens” and “Cholothrax” - think Systems Overload-era Integrity and Catharsis mashed together. The guitars seriously shred, especially when a solo is thrown in. The vocals are pissed as all hell. Rot in Hell is the best thing I've heard from Europe since the first Rise and Fall CD. To put it simply, I'm beyond stoked on this band.
Two great bands from the U.K. deliver the goods on this split 7”. I enjoy both but Rot in Hell has become my favorite current band since I came across their demo. I suggest picking that up as well as their latest split with Hordes. All of it is worth having.
