CD ReviewsThe new wave of Bay Area metal cosmokane31 | San Francisco, CA United States | 11/13/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "My first exposure to Animosity was at a show in San Francisco, where they opened for some well-known metal acts. Not only was the place packed, the band had turned damn near half the room into a mosh pit. Onstage were five guys that looked barely old enough to drive, but they were crunching out blastbeats and neck-snapping breakdowns like there was no tomorrow. This album, Animosity's second, is the first that truly captures their sound. The band mixes technical death metal, thrash, hardcore, and even out-of-nowhere bluesy riffs into one big ball of fury. Singer Leo Miller switches fluidly between death growls and midrange rasps, the performances are tight and concise, and the production is clear and heavy. Getting beat down by a bunch of teenagers never felt so good." THIS Is F*cking Bay Brutality! Feathers Fell | 253 | 07/10/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "Good lord. Animosity is one hell of an amazing band. I actually got a chance to see them with Cattle Decapitation/From A Second Story Window/Misery Index/Job For A Cowboy (not on Amazon), and look at their singer for a second. He delivers like no other! And the music is amazing technical deathgrind that will punch you in the face and you won't know what hit you! Whether it's "Manhunt" with its intro blastbeat and bass line thrown in, or the chug-chug mood of "Thieves", or the anthem track "The Black Page", you're in for a treat. And the plus is that it gets good distribution and only costs about $10! But it's worth it damnit!" Music to punch someone in the face to Total Scumbag | Hell | 02/28/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "The anger and brutality in this record is so apparent you cannot help but feel the need to punch someone in the face grow when listening to this. This is brutal music with brutal death vocals, and then some hardcore-esque screams, but no tough guy hardcore vocals. These guys break it down sometimes like a hardcore band, but I think the appropriate label would be brutal/death/tech/grind. These guys are fast, brutal, heavy, the vocalist is a madman, he even has caps on his teeth to prove that he is a hard hitting guy from the streets. Hehe, anyways there is no denying that these guys can tear it up along with any of the greatest in death metal, if they keep it up these guys have a great career ahread of them. Buy an Animosity pipe!"
