This is Seizure Crypt’s third album as far as I can work out. The opening track is the endearingly rough sounding metal/hardcore track “Supernatural” and it features an ominous sounding riff, a man shrieking and a duck whistle. Hardcore tracks that feature duck whistles are pretty rare but should give you some indication where the band is coming from. There’s not much wrong with this album, it’s pretty well produced, it’s pretty well written and they sound like they had a lot of fun making it. What is wrong with Seizure Crypt is their horrible, horrible album covers. If there wasn’t a big picture of the album artwork just up there then I’d get you to try and guess what it looks like, but you can see it. It’s horrible. Like an attempt to induce epilepsy by using only clashing colours and they nearly damn well succeed. But music isn’t about artwork, it’s about…um…music and I defy you to listen to “One Way” or “Don’t Blink” without enjoying yourself .
