Disfear was becoming a dependable measure of time by ’97, with their second LP here continuing the tradition of “Soul Scars”: Repetative riffs, vocals that are starting to show the strain of screaming after so many years, the similar squealing guitar solo - rinse and repeat. However, this would prove to be the last record issued by Disfear that fit this mold - things changed up with a new singer and direction later.
Everyday Slaughter is good, if you like this era of Disfear. Just like with Soul Scars, the better songs are ones that break their mold even slightly; otherwise the breakneck pace blurs everything together - solid, crushing d-beat that’s considered a classic 27 years later (!) but not especially different or new. Like A Brutal Sight Of War and Soul Scars, this is a recent re-release on gray vinyl.
