Squealing and often abrasive sax flows freely above a raspy, punk bass guitar with most arrangements sounding like a mixture of jazz and post-punk reminiscent of Wire. The atmosphere is dark and anxious with a mix of upbeat and downtempo tracks. Washing Your Heart in Filth really stands out. After the halfway point the album feels repetitive and there might just be a bit too much of the stressed out wailing sax for one record.
