(Here And Now+Knochen+Middle Man+…) Treading Water, the debut LP from Milwaukees’ two-man grind unit LIFES, is not a pleasant listening experience. Both in conventional and unconventional sense.
Treading Water is a brief but pugilistic cacophony, a squealing and burping punk-ridden grindy mess. LIFES carry themselves with the boisterous aggression, powerviolent attitude, and hardcore gravitas of Iron Lung or Dropdead, combined with the wild grinding invention of (my personal scene faves) The Locust. But sonically, the closest comparison I can draw is the vocal delivery of Liberteer’s Matthew Widener. That said, both Zak Rudnik and Dave Holochwost handle vocal duties; I’m not sure which is which. Both are pretty damn excellent, it should be worth noting, and no matter who is roaring, the message comes across clear. (Sleeping Village)
