Reviews

KALIBAS - ENTHUSIASTIC CORRUPTION OF THE COMMON GOOD - WILLOWTIP
This five-song EP is the work of a new (and final now the band has thrown in the towel) Kalibas lineup. The Rochester, NY mob of five will be missed given a legacy as brutal as this. Abstract and profound titles like Isolate The Paranoia, From Ivory Towers Above The Control Grid, Trilateral Preternatural Domination Through World Bank Control tear Kalibas away from the scene of Suffocation and early Kataklysm and unto the socially-conscious grindcore of Agathocles. Whatever the case and whichever the arena, Kalibas is (was) a crash course in brash and bash grindcore. Music on steroids rules! - Ali "The Metallian"
