Nasty - Menace [LP]

Menace is 14 tracks of pure, pummeling musical violence. Recorded by Andy Posdziech (Any Given Day), Menace fits perfectly within Nasty's mantra: "Four dudes doing fucked up music for a fucked up world." Traditional song structures are sacked and replaced with stream of consciousness time signatures, breakdowns that drop like boulders with no warning, and Matthi - who handles all the vocals on the record - sounds like he's screaming himself inside-out on every track. Menace could be Nasty's most vengeful release to date. It is the sonic equivalent of a massive contusion.
