Ah, good ol’ PLF. Is that Palestine Liberation Front? Pretty Little Flower? Princess Louise Fusiliers? Penguin Liberation Front? Parachute Landing Fall? Pulverizing Lethal Force? Phillip Lewis Fowler? Ha! According to an actual expert that I saw posting in the Youtube comments section (oh, ye exalted one!) the official story is that the band began as Pretty Little Flower, but are now known as Pulverizing Lethal Force. To be honest, they’ve always been known as PLF and idiots like me will continue to make up silly combinations of what those letters might stand for. Anyways, their fans can’t be that pedantic because there is still only one Discogs page for PLF, rather than two separate ones for Pretty Little Flower and Pulverizing Lethal Force.
Annnnnnnnyway, this album is, rather expectedly, the absolute fucking dogs bollocks. For everyone who goes “man, I wish there was a band out there that sounds like Insect Warfare” I say “dude, do you even grindcore, bro? DO YOU EVEN GRINDCORE? BRO!?”. Thanks to Earache Records’ continuous spamming of the “only grind record to be as good as Scum” (“do you even grindcore, Earache? Or perhaps you’ve gone a bit deaf in your old age!”) every person with an At The Gates t-shirt now has a passing interest in grindcore (read: Insect Warfare). Stop listening to what Earache have to say and listen to me! My opinion is more credible because my hands aren’t in the pockets of this band. Stop playing World Extermination 40 times a day and listen to this shit! For fuck sake!
Sigh…
For me though, this is yet another gem in the rough underground of the grind world, and another seriously high calibre bullet on the clip that is PLF (Pissy Little Fart?). Push aside for a time your Exhumed, Napalm Death, Rotten Sound, Pig Destroyer and Nasum. It is time for another grind band to ascend to that level. And that band is PLF (Pretentious Linesinwax Fanboying).
Press Le Fuckinbutton!
