FCC unsafe: 2, maybe 9 (it says "weed"), 8 (might need a review, I couldn't find the lyrics anywhere and I can't tell if it's FCC safe), maybe 10 (I think they say gun, and they say kill), 11 "fucking"

RIYL: Nirvana, MoterHead, Jane's Addiction

1- explosive guitar and drums

2- FCC "cock"

3- repetitive, dark march beat 

4- scream grunge

5-progressive chords, high energy

6- if The Pixies were from Seattle sound

7- chaotic, robotic 

8- (need a second review, can't tell if FCC safe, can't find lyrics) 30+second instrumental intro, strong sound, hearing Jane's Addiction influence

11- FCC "fucking"
