Here's the newest injection of ridiculous grindprog from Finland's CAUSE FOR EFFECT, who essentially marry octopoidal drumming and bass prog/jazz/core
heaviness and complexity to old school NAPALM DEATH / CARCASS style grindcore! That's right, you get insane , non-distorted bass guitar runs and ultra
technical,mathy skronk, blasting intricate drumming, like Ruins and Orthrelm, but with entire pages torn out of the early Napalm Death songbook, including 30
second songs and absurd full-on deathgrunt vocals. Imagine Hella or Lightning Bolt doing a tribute set to grindcore legends REPULSION's Horrified
album. Or bass n' drums powerviolence band Godstomper, if they were heavily influenced by Magma and Ruins. It's just as over the top and ridiculous as it
sounds, but we've loved this crazy shit ever since we first heard their PQ-2 CD a few years ago. The playing is stop-on-a-dime, super tight, mostly
blastbeats and retarded speedy bass runs, but Cause For Effect occasionally drop into a wicked southern rock groove or slow,doomy dirge, or poppy, melodic
riff, before taking off at high speed back into their weird, undistorted, austere version of grindcore. Clocks in at around 15 minutes.
