Still

Personnel: The Frst United Methodist Church of Glen Ellyn (background vocals).
Audio Mixer: Andy Nelson .
Recording information: The Bricktop Recording (2013).
On their fourth full-length outing, Weekend Nachos return to unleash another torrent of hatred and sonic destruction upon unsuspecting ears with Still. In full command of their astonishingly tight combination of grind, power-violence, and sludge, the disarmingly monikered Chicagoans absolutely pummel listeners with their relentless pace and brutal tone. While the album is an exercise in relentless fury, it seldom feels chaotic, which -- given the kinds of hardcore insanity they're cobbling together here -- is a minor miracle. All told, Still is a hulking beast of an album that wants nothing more than to spend 20 or so minutes taking out its many, many issues on you, but those brave souls with the fortitude to make it through the ordeal alive will definitely want to go back for more. ~ Gregory Heaney
