The Curse Of The Golden Vampire - Mass Destruction

The Curse of the Golden Vampire are basically Techno Animal but somehow even more pissed off with the world. This must be the loudest, most violent CD I've ever bought, Justin Broadrick is half of Techno Animal and played guitar and did vocals for an early incarnation of Napalm Death and now it seems he's feeling a tad nostalgic since what we basically have here is a grindcore album. OK the beats may be more Jungle than anything and alot of the noises are samples rather than guitars and screaming (not that there isn't a hell of a lot of guitars and screaming) but yep, it's good ol fashioned grindcore - just like Mom used to make! I put this CD on my headphones at work and almost instantly the memories of a long haired, black clothes obsessed teenage Darth Phil came flooding back - I've been listening to this since then with the biggest shit eating grin you've ever seen! The thing is, anyone else in there right mind will hate it...
