Bruce X Campbell are a band from California that plays a mixture of noisecore and grind and this is a review of their 2015 cassette "Los Angeles Noisecore" which was released by Give Praise Records.
A very heavy bass guitar sound starts off the cassette and a few seconds later blast beats, death metal growls are added into the music and when the music speeds up high pitched noisecore screams and brutal blast beats are utilized and the songs also bring in a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
Angry crustcore style shouting can be heard in certain sections of the recording and the cassette is divided into 2 different ep's with the first side being "Hail To the King" and the second side "Humanity Deserves To Die" and some songs on the first side use a small amount of guttural growls and also avoids any use of solos and leads.
The second side starts out with a very fast and brutal noise/grind sound along with a great amount of blast beats, growls and high pitched screams and you can also hear a heavy dose of crust and d beats in the songs which are also very short in length and some of the songs also bring in a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and all of the musical instruments sound very powerful.
Bruce X Campbell mixes the fastest and heaviest elements of crust, grind and noise core to create a very brutal style of music, the production sounds very powerful while the lyrics cover violent and hateful themes.
In my opinion Bruce X Campbell are a very great sounding mixture of grind and noisecore and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Blood Lust" "Warkiller" "Crushed Beneath The Great Weight Of Hate" and "The Crave". 8 out of 10.
