Review from QUEENS OF STEEL, translated by Google:

This time we will discuss the split of a couple of American bands that have a strong link: Grindcore.

We're talking about insults and RAMPANT DECAY, that while the first makes an acceptable Grindcore, the second mix that style with a powerful Hardcore.

Split consists of six issues of insults and 3 of RAMPANT DECAY, the latter being the most interesting to me because the first only include that as a good group of Grind they are, the songs are at best half a minute except last, "Diddler on Parole", where we can enjoy more time making good insult with an aggressive voice and guitars and drums fast.

For its part, RAMPANT DECAY, we offer three cuts for a period of about five minutes we hear some good guitar riffs while some interesting rhythm changes that make the issues are not at all linear and boring. Also noteworthy is that the voice is ragged and fits perfectly with the music of these Yankees. To review the song "Apocalyterian Party" as a good example that not only know how to play fast music but there is quiet and subdued passages precede faster parts.

In short, if yours is the Grindcore not hesitate to listen to this interesting Split two unknown bands, which Emrecan it a try in your ears.

Patac Records (2010)
Score: 9/10

Rich, I was going to email you about that - I still have the email with all the mp3 tracks you sent me, for some reason, I can't download the attachments from that email. I tried from a few different computers, it's giving me an error on them...so, I need yet another copy of it, email or Facebook me about getting me some kind of a promo, and I'll get that review done on the fly.

Here's the review for the split:

Insult/Rampant Decay - Split 7"
Reviewed by Andy "Dinger" Beresky (www.StonerRock.com)

This split offers up a handful of tracks from two of Boston's finest. Insult have been kicking around since the early 90's, and they haven't changed much. They're still kicking out rapid fire, whiplash hardcore tunes. Fans of Siege, Deep Wound, and SSD will dig the band's old school, speed for the sake of speed approach, which never really hits the pace of grindcore or powerviolence, but still packs a mean wallop due to its raw intensity. They offer up six songs in under four minutes, ending with the midtempo "Diddler On Patrole", which sounds closer to Black Flag, and is the longest track, clocking in at just under a minute and a half.

Rampant Decay are a newer act, forming in 2006, and their sound is even more aggressive and abrasive. They mix elements of grind, thrash, crust punk, and sludge into a colossal blender and spew out short, well constructed anthems for these shattered times. They contribute three distinct tracks to their side of the split, and each has its own defining moment. "Apocalypterian" juxtaposes blasts and chainsaw guitars with slowed down sludge, while "Pigshit" is characterized by its infections breakdown. "I Wish All My Friends Were Dead" brings more of a Discharge influence to the table, before exploding into blasts for the grand finale.


All in all, this is a cool split with an old school vibe that reminds me of seven inch splits of lore, from "back in the day." While Insult definitely have that throwback vibe to them and will appeal to those who loved the This Is Boston, Not LA comp, Rampant Decay seem to have more modern sensibilities, and I can see them winning over some fans from the extremephiles that frequent this site. Recommended.
