despite what United Nations may say, i don't think this album is very grindcore/powerviolence influenced. with that said, i would not consider this a weak effort, to say the least. United Nations is definitely a super group of sorts to give credit to where it's due. the dual-vocal performances are excellent, the guitar is melodic (all the while being spazzy) and catchy as hell, and the drummer is showing "up the punk" on his kit big time. although the members all have their main bands to keep focus on, this is a nice departure from what they're all known to deliver. it's damn tasty to say the least.
