TRACK REVIEW: Deaf Forever – Narc Hole

We have been assured in advance that Deaf Forever hold no grudges against us, and that the title of this delightful slab of noise is in no way targeted at us. However, whoever’s pissed vocalist/guitarist Lance off has my eternal gratitude, as it has spawned one almighty colossus of a track.

Narc Hole starts out as a gloriously entertaining riff-laden blast of catharsis, and then proceeds to hurl itself screeching into a stretched-out, brutal workout of overdriven slide guitar, brilliantly underpinned by the dark grooves of drummer Ben and bassist Tucker.

All in all, it’s a delightfully brutal listen from the Darlington-based alt. rock noise makers.
