  Child Abuse - Pre-Emptrive Preapism
Download   |   Stream

CHILD ABUSE bring together playfully wild keyboards, throbbed bass stabs, stuttering piledriver percussion and demonic vocal fits. To make matters even more terrifying, CHILD ABUSE embody the musical spirit of a drunken Thelonious Monk in a head-on car wreck with Gorguts. Brutal, catchy, complex dissonance bent grind. The band released the acclaimed Miracle of Birth/Child Abuse split cd with Lovepump and are releasing a forthcoming album also on Lovepump United in Spring of 2007. Releases also on Folding Cassettes, Forge, and Zum, who will be releasing a Z's/CHILD ABUSE split single this year.

"No matter how hard you try to be ready for anything, a new band always steps out the crowd and jams its boot down your throat hole."
