Two years back I reviewed ¡Apeshit!'s self-titled demo. The record contained thirteen songs in just about eleven minutes. This 7" EP - which the band has self-released on their own label - counts a modest seven songs in just a smidge over seven minutes.

Cavalier Activity is an extension of the sound heard on their previous recordings, which also includes a split with Tigershark. ¡Apeshit! Mesh together screamo, grindcore, and power violence in a chaotic frenzy. Fans of Charles Bronson and Swing Kids will fall in love with songs like "Rob Roy" and "Prime Numbers." These seven songs are highly volatile and completely rage. This piece of wax is well worth the purchase if you're into the 31G or Gravity catalogs.
