2.5 average | cjbizzlebizzle | February 28th 18 | Death metal and D-beat come together to sound, well, like pretty standard Death metal with a very repetitive drum beat. Mammoth Grinder's overall sound on this album is certainly not mammoth as the production and song variation leave room for improvement. Despite having a tight mix of styles none of the songs come off as instantly memorable and they all tend to blend into a crusty, muddy amalgam as the vocalist takes the same approach to every word and the guitar riffs are all rather similar. More dynamic vocals would be huge and the production leaves the mix dusty and obscured as the vocalist sounds like they are standing in a tunnel around the corner from the mic. Skip around to any point in the album and you probably wouldn't know where you are unless you listen to this many times. Unfortunately not as dynamic of a sound as needed for a somewhat simple songwriting approach despite having a tight deathy Dbeat old school hardcore sound.

2.5 average | cvlts | January 30th 18 | While the single to this album "Superior Firepower" gave some heads up to the monotonous and chugging nature of the album, having it stretched out over 11 songs gets a bit boring.

2.0 poor | Risodo | January 28th 18 | What a hell happened here? Mammoth Grinder made a incredible work in Underworlds. I was looking forward to this and in my point of view this is a total mess. There are some good moments, but the drum work seems so childish it hurts.
