How in the world did this continue flying under the radar for so long!? Headfirst Straight to Hell feels and sounds like a complete puzzle which can arguably defeat the evil that nests within Pandora's Box. Okay, divine exaggeration aside, the songs off this album carry an immense quantity of firepower and emotion, thanks to the absolutely raw-sounding compositions and Kyle Bishop's comfortable dosage of alluring clean vocals and unforgivingly tense screaming. Oh, sure, there exist disfigurements during this release's time, yet somehow Grade ends up either purifying them or just playing along with the occasional blemishes. If anybody out in the world loves gorging themselves with the likes of Fugazi or Glassjaw, then I'm pretty sure you'll have a sweet, astounding experience with Headfirst Straight to Hell.
