This one-man band popped up a year ago, must say this demo work really impressed me. Nothing special in design, same with the tape format but the sound of this small release is awesome! Also, Permanent Headache is one of the many projects of Italian grindhead Michele (Yakisoba, Congenital Deformity, Carbonized Innocents, and many more). That man is unstoppable, haha! Btw tapes were pressed in the USA by our good friends Bloody Scythe Records… and at this moment I want to put on this little badass.
First of all this material has a strong influence of old heroes like Doom and Extreme Noise Terror. Same with the sound, it`s raw but very powerful and heavy. Material has not so much variety but I didn`t find any boring pieces. This recording session has an epic bass guitar sound and a very cool and deep vocal (actually it reminds me of the style of Dean Jones). But the tone of the guitar and its riff is nice too.
Also, this debut work has a very impressive portion of pumping energy, at the end of the record you simply to play it again and again! This is a strong example of a great crust grind!
Rating: 8.5/10 Permanent Headache fb
