2 stars Listening diary 10th August 2021: PainKiller - Buried Secrets (jazzcore, 1992)

I remember being really impressed by this one once, but I feel like I was more impressed by its existence than anything else. It's definitely something to behold - grindcore with a manic freewheeling John Zorn on top, blasting saxophone noises in all directions over a rapidfire set of tracks. But as much as I love sax noises, even some of Zorn's ones, these? He's basically overblowing for 20 minutes straight here, and once you get used to the insanity, it's not a particularly pleasant sound. But then again, when has grindcore ever been about being pleasant?

5.0 (4th listen)
