This is the final review of a recording from Unruh which continues their mixture of grind, crust, power violence and hardcore with the 3rd album being entitled "Singles And EPs" which consists of their 7 inches, ep's, singles, songs from splits, demo's and live tracks and was released by King Of The Monsters in the year of 2015.
Clean yet hard playing starts off the compilation before going into a heavier direction which also uses a great amount of high pitched screams and melodies and when the music speeds up it showcases more of a fast and raw/crust grind sound along with a decent amount of blast beats and all of the musical instruments have a very powerful sound to them.
Throughout the recording there is a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and the influence of hardcore really is utilized more on these songs than they where on the full lengths and some of the tracks also bring in a small amount of clean playing and spoken word samples while some of the later songs also bring in death metal influences in the riffs as well as adding growls in certain sections of the recording.
As the compilation progresses some of the melodies have more of a power violence feeling to them along with a touch of post hardcore and there is also a brief use of female vocals on one of the tracks and some of the songs on the compilation where featured on the full lengths and there are also a decent amount of live songs towards the end of the compilation.
Unruh bring in their power violence and crust sound onto all these songs and you can hear a lot of progresses over the years throughout the compilation, the production ranges from raw to professional while the lyrics cover violent and hateful themes.
In my opinion this is a very great sounding compilation from Unruh and if you are a fan of grind, crust, power violence and hardcore, you should check out this 3 lp set. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Siphon" "Revision" "Friendly Fire" and "Abscess". 8 out of 10.
