You'd have thought some other band would have had the name Explosion before, but maybe fate was just waiting for a band that sounds like this pounding punk foursome from Boston. Matt Hock may shout his lungs off on ultra-harsh punk tracks like "13 O'Clock" and punishing hardcore like "Kill My Friends" just like he did on 2000's Flash Flash Flash, and sometimes he sounds like Jello Biafra on Dead Kennedys' In God We Trust, Inc. on the breakneck "Anonymous I.D."

All their amps sound like they're on 11, and no further explanation is necessary. Someone should have to shout, "Get down! Taste the dirt!" whenever they're about to play this. ~ Jack Rabid, Rovi
