Previously, on.... Abrupt, brutal grinding fucking death. This record would get a write up on the first day at most jobs. That doesn't mean you shouldn't listen to it. Just not on your first day.

fuzznautdoom Brutal assault from start to finish. I am not even a fan of death grind but this delivers in spades. Its really hard to pick one track this whole record kills.
Favorite track: Blast Haven.

DrakeZappa This record doesn't care what you think and has a fun time doing what it does.
And what it does is rip and tear.
Love the blend of influences here.

A true, short and sweet grindcore cacophony!

bcb723 Was definitely waiting for this one to come out. Short and brutal, "Blast Haven" is superior grind that is also unbelievably heavy. Prepare to hit repeat often as Narakah will fuck you up in style. Favorite track: Implosive Sonata.

Darknight Anticipation was boiling over for Blast Haven and I can't believe how heavy it is! Listening to the 9 tracks will implode inside your eardrums,its faster,angrier,heavier and a non stop rager that just gets better after every listen. Narakah are my fave band at the moment. Favorite track: Implosive Sonata.
