Sounds Like:
some serious polarization. churn churn, thumpa, growl, buzzsaw. also: sort of an angry, deranged, copiously slobbering clusterfuck of the artists listed in the "Influences" section above, chipped teeth, psychedelia, a load of trashy old noise, the illuminati getting illuminated, and "kids these days". and getting arrested.
