With a video that's been banned from MTV on the grounds of its horrific and epilepsy-inducing imagery, the Berzerker's Dissimulate is a truly evil album. The Australian group uses rapid-fire machine-gun beats and industrial grind riffs for a death metal record that is relentless, horrific, and potentially damaging in its assault on the listener. From the initial blast of the first track, "Disregard," to the final cover of Carcass' "Corporal Jigsore Quandary," the Berzerker's sound is layered in noise and the machinery of inhuman grind music. Not for the faint of heart, this unstoppable album redefines the boundaries of heavy metal and makes the perfect addition to the collection of any listener looking for the heaviest sounds imaginable. ~ Charles Spano|

ナパーム・デスやカーカスの音源を世界中に流布した重要レーベル、イヤーエイクの懐の深さと変わらぬ心意気に圧倒される本作。一言で〈グラインド・コア〉とは言い表せない異端ぶりを発揮。まあ、この手のサウンド・スタイルの出発点自体が異端だったわけだが、オーストラリア出身のこいつらはかなりヤバい。激速で機械的なブラスト・ビートはガバで踊り狂ってるような興奮を呼び起こす。DHR好きも要チェック!
