I've been listening to Napalm Death since I was like 7?yes bitch I had a very happy childhood thank you very much!...So anyway, I remember the day when my cousin arrived from Europe; he had so many souvenirs for all of us (and he got me cookies, the prick!). But inside his backpack I found an LP with images so sickening that I thought I was unveiling the twisted mind of a serial killer or something?I played the album, and I immediately soaked my pants (with regular water, not pee, sometimes I'm weird like that)?the record was Napalm Death's "Utopia Banished".

This was my first Grindcore CD. Killer. I love the positive messages of Napalm Death, as well!

In my opinion this is napalm death's best album of the 21st century so far. 'Smear Campaign' had a bit of progression about its sound and songwriting, but this album takes that to a whole new level, and as we can see on stunning tracks such as 'On the Brink of Extinction' and closer (on my version) 'Omnipresent Knife in your back', the latter of which featuring much more melody than any other track the band has ever done. This is fucking brilliant to say the least.

However strange this comparison may sound, but I can't help comparing Napalm Death with good wine. Both get better with years.

I'd go as far to say that this is their best album since Harmony Corruption, although Code is Red..was quite good as well..

The limited edition bonus track Omnipresent Knife In Your Back is one of their best songs. So simple, but its so good, groovy, and even catchy.

This is understandably considered their best album to date, to say it's brutal and heavy would most certainly be an understatement.

The problem for me is it lacks consistency, it has great tracks like "Work to Rule", and "Downbeat Clique", a few decent tracks, and then a load of what I would call average one's.
