Apex predator - easy meat

"The pace is not only intense, it's insane, and Greenway's screams and guttural roars seem to come from his marrow. Harris' galloping riffs are pushed into the red by the rhythm section. There are no signs of creative slowdown here. If anything, Apex Predator- Easy Meat ups the ante on all their post-2000 albums. How they top this is anybody's guess. Completely unrelenting; thoroughly amazing".

"Even by their own standards, Apex Predator - Easy Meat is startling. Thematically centred on the horror of industrialised slave labour in the modern world, the band's 15th studio album revels in the perversity of such compassionate and humane lyrical ideas being tethered to music that seeks to leave real scars. It's a diverse set that veers from expected bursts of dizzying speed and violence such as Smash a Single Digit and Cesspits to gruelling, hypnotic dirges such as the dense, unearthly Swans-isms of the title track and the churning Dear Slum Landlord, while the hammering, dissonant grooves of How the Years Condemn and Timeless Flogging add twisted accessibility to an otherwise remorseless onslaught".
