Insect Warfare - World Extermination (2007)

   If there was a competition about who is the most brutal grindcore band, Insect Warfare would take place in the top 5.
   "World Extermination" is the first and last full-lenght album of their short and and occasional active periods. Like most similar bands, they also preferred to show up on split albums and short EPs, and of course "World Extermination" also had EP lenght. But for this insane intensiveness it's good enough. In their music the references to both the classical directions of the genre (Napalm Death/Extreme Noise Terror and Terrorizer/Repulsion) could be actively sensed, but the very heavy and noisy sound is typically a modern feature. The band didn't bother to play longer melodic punk influenced intros like old school bands did, they preferred to strike into the middle, and to focus on the effectiveness of sudden noisy and intense themes. Newer bands payed more attention on the sound and noise gained more important role than before. The album is full of brutality and could be compared to how is it sounds when buildings are demolished. It offers excellent entartainment for grindcore fans.
