MOB RULES – The Donor LP

On their debut full-length, the UK’s Mob Rules have concocted one of the most ambitious and cohesive re-articulations of power violence in recent memory. While they don’t abandon the genre’s essential traits–blistering fast parts, trippy sludge breakdowns, and harsh, hateful vocals–they render them exponentially more powerful by adding some new spices to the stew, namely an expansive sense of composition that recalls King Crimson at their heaviest moments. From a 37-second ripper to a 7+-minute epic jam that wastes anything on The Process of Weeding Out, this LP has it all. Includes free mp3 download and obi strip.
