Hello, My Name Is... Madness (released 2007)
3:16 Productions
The heavy rock outfit, Seizure Crypt is back with a new album and a new bass player. Still playing high octane, heavy punk rock, sped up to the point of exploding drummers. I'm telling you, I don't know how the drummer keeps up on many of these tracks. It's gotta be a fucking workout! Maybe that's why so many drummers are so skinny? Seizure Crypt has provided eight brand spanking new tracks on this release, produced by the legendary Don Fury, whose credits include Agnostic Front and Sick Of It All. from the sound of the eight tracks on here, you can here the tweaks that Don himself may have made for the band. The production itself is cleaner and crisper. The heavy bass lines and intricate guitar is still in place for Seizure Crypt. Additionally, the addition of more aggressive and potent vocals; vocals that weave in and out, up and down throughout the music, it provides the band a fuller more powerful sound. You can hear that clearly on the opening track "The Great Defector", as well as on the exciting "Thankless" track. I may have said it in previous reviews of Seizure Crypt, but it bears repeating...this is fast music, angry music. Music that you put in the stereo and go for a angst ridden, Red Bull and vodka fueled, rampage down the highway, at speed that are illegal even in Montana. Fans of the crossover styles of rock, hardcore, and metal already know the power and energy the band delivers through their releases, and "Hello, My Name Is..." is no exception to the Seizure Crypt catalog. I hear that Seizure Crypts live shows are something not to be missed, again with their boundless energy in the music pouring off of the stage in wave after wave of destructive rock ferocity.
