Fuck The Facts/Know Your Dope Fiend/Xuriiux/2002 EP Review


  Fuck  The Facts  are  a  band  from  Canada  that  has  had  a  few  of  their  recordings  reviewed  in  this  zine  with  a  musical  style  that  I  would  describe  as  being  experimental  crust/grind  and  this  is  a r eview  of  their  2002  ep  "Know  Your  Dope  Fiend"  which  was  released  by  Xuriiux.

  Drums  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  drumming  with  a  great  amount  of  blast  beats  being thrown    into  the  music,  while the  bass  playing  has  a  very  dark tone  with  riffs  that  follow  the  riffing  that  is  coming  out  of  the  guitars  and  at  times  they  have  a  very  powerful  sound  to  them.

  Rhythm  guitars range  from  slow,  mid paced  to  fast  riffs  that  combine  grindcore,  power  violence  crust  and  experimental  music  together  to  create  a  sound  of  their  own  with  a  brief  use  of  soft  and  clean  playing  being  utilized  on  one  song ,  while  the  lead  guitars  which  are  only  utilized  briefly  they  are  very  raw  and  primitive  sounding  guitar  solos  and  leads.

  Vocals  are  mostly  high  pitched  grindcore  screams,  crustcore  yells  and  alot  of  spoken  word  parts  and  samples,  while  the  lyrics  cover  drinking,  hateful  and  everyday  themes,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very  dark,  raw  and  primitive  sound  to  it.

  In  my  opinion  this  is  another  great  recording  from Fuck  The  Facts  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  this  band,  you  should  check  it  out.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Know  Your  Dope  Fiend"  "Packin  Forties"  "Lack  Of  Imagination"  and  "The  Gift  Of  Shit".  RECOMMENDED  BUY.
