World I Hate Total Nuclear Annihilation LP
A furious soundtrack for late-stage capitalism’s funeral procession. WORLD I HATE delivers exactly what the title promises: twelve tracks of scorched-earth hardcore. Harshly bleak and confrontational. Keith Caves’ artwork matches the record’s worldview perfectly. Metallic hardcore and modern powerviolence are the cards that they have up their sleeves. The relentless pace and short song lengths evoke WEEKEND NACHOS and INFEST, while the crushing mid-tempo sections recall TRAP THEM and early HARM’S WAY. There are also traces of the suffocating atmosphere and social paranoia found in bands like CURSED. Tracks like “Disappeared,” “Less Than Zero,” and the title track channel rage at state violence, economic exploitation, and social decay into compact bursts rarely exceeding two minutes. Weaponized anger!
