BALATONIZER
“Oclused In Ottusity”
(Dark Reign)

I like grindcore if it’s done the right way. Let me put it this way. I like the A-side of Napalm Death’s “Scum” better than the B-side. Which kinda explains why I like Italian Balatonizer’s take on grindcore. With 32 tracks in less than what it takes a normal album to run it’s hard to pick any fave tracks. What’s important instead is if it makes for a continual musical journey, and it does. Then it doesn’t become important if you can tell one track apart from the other as long as you sit with a smile on your face once the album finished, and I do.
