Bringing forth a style from the dying embers of old school, Jared Drace manages to do something a little different with the music. On the brink of being doomdeath helps describe the generally slow lumbering parts of the music. Without a doubt however the guttural growling disrupts any harmony that may occur -- and combined with the faster moments makes for an assuredly extreme death recording.
Jared appears very interested in the technical side of the music without wanting to lose the raw aggression. Strong riffs and melodies, which in the absence of the vocals may actually be harmonic, give a very flavoured album.
It's really a shame that the production on this demo cassette is substandard. An abundance of noise and mixing problems really hurt Death Squad's sound. Jared could certainly do with some more money put out an amazing CD. In the meantime this demo will pleasantly surprise you.
