Jesus Fucking Christ “Life’s Hateful Seed” CD

Building on their Poison Idea meets the Accused sound, JESUS FUCKING CHRIST has added some metallic flourishes with a thicker guitar sound and some intense and heavy mid tempo sections. Dave Ed's (Neurosis) handled the production in house this time around. Dave's voice is more prominent on many of the tracks, going from backing vocals to a full second vocalist. Larry's guitar work has only gotten more intense with the addition of occasional frantic punk rock solos throughout the album. Lyrically, the songs lash out at everything from punk scene politics and institutions to co-workers and the city they are from while always remaining firmly in the negative. All in all, this album accomplishes what any excellent second album does: builds and expands on the framework set by the first and never disappoints. Enhanced cd with a video for the title track.(Inimical)
