From the same boutique New York noise manufacture that has brought us, among other things, the vigorous and smart hard-/postcore of Kaleidoscope, we're given another force of nature to deal with. The debut album by Tower 7 sure bears some resemblance to the aforementioned Kaleidoscope but, by also taking more than just a few cues from ancient UK crust tradition, manages to deliver a bunch of blows even more relentless. Their tools of choice are obviously a bit more blunt, though equally effective.
