The Dismal Advance is the first Shock Withdrawal album (after a good debut EP in 2022), and a great pick if you're into modern, tight and powerful grindcore (in a Nasum / Rotten Sound vein). No more, no less.
Shock Withdrawal, with a first self-titled EP released by Selfmadegod Records and with the vocalist of Noisear (and ex-Maruta) seemed nice on paper. I had to check it. And I did well! It's not only nice on paper, but also really pleasing to my ears! Like a good death/grind band should, they deliver a good combination of speed and groove on these six tracks. Rooted in old school, but done with a sharp and tight modern execution and production. An album will be welcomed!
