Intense and brutal from start to finish, “Shift of Redemption” kicks and screams in less than twelve minutes with the kind of go-for-the-throat savagery you’d expect, with no subtleties, no breaks, nothing but frills-free aggression.
The title track shows the band dishing out the same gut-churning intensity that made their previous work such a caustic and brutal release, pure hardcore rage delivered with a crusty snarl. Things get even nastier on the following track “Live Low” with vocalist Jeffrey Lohrber repeatedly screaming the words ‘fuck you, fuck you, fuck you forever’ on top of a frantic slab of raging crust and hardcore-infused metal. The remaining two songs, “Sacrifice” and “Fallselflessly”, see Enabler slowing down the tempo a tad to churn out some killer, catchy, yet equally violent riffs.
Any fan of this band will certainly not be disappointed, because I’m not kidding when I say that “Shift of Redemption” will beat you black and blue.
