I truly can’t decide about MF&GCOQD, are they actually a Mince-core outfit or just a ludicrously monikered Grindcore band? The Czech lunatics seem neither to know nor care one way or the other, this, their third album twisting and turning like a twisty turny thing (c/o ‘Blackadder’). As usual, the band inject their own brand of unique humour into every ‘cut’, and you can’t help but raise a twisted smile as the lunacy unravels around you. The music is also perplexingly catchy and accessible in places, which adds a further layer of incomprehensibility to this musical ‘onion’. Is that a new genre I wonder…Onion Core?



Yes it is Grindcore, but it’s also more, it’s rapcore, jazzcore, touching into Symphonicore in other places, replete with insane blastbeat drumming and ultra violent vocals. Throw into that mix Hardcore Gang Chants and all manner of weird and often truly strange samples, and you quickly see that this is a band not following any easily defined path. I’m assured that in the ‘live’ environment all this chaos and insanity makes perfect sense, but even as a fan of extreme music myself, I’ll admit that this has had me scratching my head in perplexed curiosity most of the time.



File under ‘adventurous’…or simply ‘What The Fuck?’
