Exit Wounds is a fucking brilliant band! They play a straight kind of Grindcore no strings attached, their music sounds intense and utterly agressive. The album is outstanding from the beginning to the end, but it only lasts for 9 minutes, yes those 9 minutes are worthwhile enough, but I'll surely be waiting for a full length instead. For starters this EP will fit perfectly and will make people notice this grotesque band, but besides being a great way to make the band a noticed name in the scene, it won't really help a lot in other terms.

I seriously don't understand why people take their time and use their money in recording only 9 minutes of music, they could have created a longer EP to blow everyone's brains out indeed. This problem became popular nowadays, since Tower Of Rome got away with murder, everyone else seems to be doing it, and I thought Agoraphobic Nosebleed tricked us into buying only 19 minutes of music in their Honkey Reduction EP.

All in all this band marks the re-birth of purely violent Grindcore, no bullshit and no "mixing" of genres, this is just hostile and fast music in the vein of Extreme Noise Terror, Cripple Bastards and the likes, a very refreshing listen actually. I would have prefered a different type of vocals and a couple of segments to at least breathe, but we can't have everything right?

I think we must keep an eye on this band, but that's it for now, I seriously can't recommend people to buy a 9 minutes album even if I wanted to, there are longer songs available in the scene you see? And I guess people should be able to first understand that they're buying only that ammount of time; in that case, if you are ordering albums and you have 10 bucks to spare, I guess this is where they have to end.
