About Me

"Child Abuse is logical result of an entire generation raised by Nintendo and overbearing, Tipper Gore-admiring moms. "Reading is for people who don't vomit, and Morbid Angel lives in my closet next to my porno!" the band seems to shout with its avalanche of Casio squeals, death-metal percussion, and forgot-to-take-my-Thorazine howls."- Flavorpill

CHILD ABUSE!


"Total blissful fast/stacatto jello-sounds for the new punx. CHILD ABUSE place audience members into complete aural convulsion and, at the same time, drench them in their own metaphorical Gurdjieffian "I" vomit. How? CHILD ABUSE combine the best of heavy machine gun spurts of atonal tech-metal to confusing off time blurps and murps, Residents style hump-funk, aspects of wildly enthusiastic children's music and growls and howls of 1973 mud improvisations with the spirits of Drumbo and Carl Nielson hovering ominously overhead."

Sounds Like: "The vocals are jarring, the bass does little to hold the "music" together, the drumming fills are dull and the glitch Electronica is beyond unbearable. The worst thing is bands live off reactions like this, it's what makes them "edgy" to their audience... I have no doubt people will buy this, but in my opinion they're idiots this isn't music it's noise poorly constructed into a messy pile of rubbish, where even the most abrasive Grind band shows some concept of song structuring CHILD ABUSE show none. This kind of pseudo intellectual pap is what gives the rest of technical Metal and Noise bands a bad name, in fact this doesn't even sound like Metal with it's piss poor production, this is by far the worst thing I have had to listen to probably bar none, even Pop can be catchy, this is just soulless nonsense. Avoid." -Richard, Metal Observer Webzine
