Antigama brings something quite refreshing to grindcore. It’s not experimentally chaotic like Cephalic Carnage and such, but has a broad horizon on unorthodox material to combine with basic grindcore. While most songs last little over ninety seconds, it doesn’t feel like that because a lot of interesting stuff happens in that short space of time.

There are quite some digital effects on the album, something that puts this form of grindcore in a different perspective. The vocals tend to make a lot of use of this as well, which in my opinion is better than some retarded farmer who can eject only one pig-like sound from his throat.

 

Antigama is very rhythmical, grooving and extremely experimental on both musical and vocal areas. Too bad that this record lasts a mere 24 minutes (of which more than nine minutes are consumed by a very weird indoctrinating vocal/effect outro called “Zeroland”), I’d love to see a longer release on a big internationally recognised but very noisy label. They definitely add something new and very refreshing to this genre of which I did not see much possibilities for anymore, since so many has been done with it already.

Definitely worth checking out for avant-garde freaks and grindheads!
