Reviews TOXIC BONKERS - PROGRESS - SELFMADEGOD
Here comes yet another good grindcore release from Selfmadegod, deliverers of Antigama, Drugs Of Faith and more. Toxic Bonkers is Polish, serious and crass as napalm. The band apparently has a progressive bent - which adds to its appeal - and grinds with a distinct metallic edge. There is the basic drum rattle of Napalm Death, the big crush of Bolt Thrower and clear hints of old Sepultura in the melodies and the vocals. It is not all super fast although blast beats are there too like on Manifesto. Then again, the band gets silly here and there and inserts synthesizers into the songs Progress and Gorephobia. Ignoring that last concession to the forces of wimp, this band is truly bonkers, makes hell of a racket and has its sullied heart in the right place. - Anna Tergel
