EXTINCTION|SALVATION

GRINDHEAD RECORDS SAYS : "Extinction|Salvation will engulf your senses with nineteen tracks of inhumanly dense and intense grindcore. The group fuse the grind stylings of old with a crushing hybrid of modern grind, crust and punk with a smattering of death metal. Taking the best parts of Napalm Death’s raw, intense and wholly uncompromising political punk-influenced aural assault, Beyond Terror have reinvigorated the grindcore blueprint by incorporating elements of modern extreme groups such as Rotten Sound, Discordance Axis and Circle of Dead Children.
The end product is a skull-crushingly intense piece of Australian grindcore that has sealed Beyond Terror Beyond Grace’s place amongst the nations top tier of extreme music - joining the likes of The Kill, Captain Cleanoff, Agents of Abhorrence and Fuck I’m Dead. This is an outstandingly powerful and intelligent release from one of the hardest working bands in the Australian music scene - and an absolute essential for any grindhead."
PYROMUSIC.NET SAYS:"BTBG combine the dynamics of grinding death metal riffs with punk drumming and grindcore’s frantic, incomprehensible vocal onslaught. For a bunch of guys who just finished high school it’s a spectacularly old-school approach that eschews all sense of melody and technicality while focusing on blatant tear-your-head-off overkill. They’ve learned well from their masters and with its deliberately understated packaging and decent production Extinction|Salvation has set Beyond Terror Beyond Grace up for what could be a bright future on the grind circuit."
THE STIX SAYS:"This is thinking mans grindcore, a breath of fresh air in a very cluttered and stifling genre and a band with a great future to embrace."
ADRENALIN FANZINE SAYS:"I introduce you all to BTBG. I classify them as progressive grind, but only in the lyrical sense. The music is awesome grind/death/punk. Old-school feeling, old-school sounding, and yet a refreshing, revitalizing breath of fresh mountain grind… air. "Extinction|Salvation" is 19 tracks (26 minutes) of ungorificated, sample-less death/grind bursts with unusual lyrical messages. Messages written with metaphors and similes so that you have to consider and digest the messages included, as opposed to having it spelled out for you, with you learning nothing more than a few more medical terms for newly exposed body parts coated in a cocktail of bodily secretions. Just to give you an idea of the direction BTBG takes the listener in, song-titles include "Smiling In The Face Of Despair", "Reinvention Ghost", "Born And Raised", "Unattainable" and "Apathy And Acceptance".
VINCENT OVER THE SINK SAYS:"New BTBG is like a lion fed Bull Terrier rampaging thru a city throwing napalm and snarling like the noise gods!!!"
DEATHDOOM METAL WEBZINE SAYS: "Time for another chaos filled helping from Grindhead Records this time in the shape of the enigmatic BEYOND TERROR BEYOND GRACE. Rather than being out and out grindcore, a style they do heavily lean towards, they have packed out their album with amazing head banging moments created by startling rolling riffs. Not only that but their music is thoroughly diverse with fantastic tempo changes that almost border on Doom Like in places. From start to finish "Extinction/Salvation" is a masterpiece, mournful, sorrowful yet totally in your face and packing more fire power than the evil warlord Bush’s arsenal. Rating = DDDD - Doomtastic (4/5)"
BLUNT MAGAZINE SAYS: " Extinction|Salvation sees major advances in all departments, from production to the music to the understated cover artwork. With a style that might not unflatteringly be described as grindcore and nothing besides, they absolutely refuse to give your poor head a single moments rest. Special mention should go to the skinwork of Steve who is the sort of drummer other drummers wank over. 7/10"
