The bastard sons (or patron saints) of South Florida hardcore return with their most frantic, stripped and raw performance yet. BISHOP blast through 17 songs in just under 20 minutes, refining their natural evolution, creating a marriage between powerviolence, floorpunching mosh parts, and even some miserable sludge riffs (think Infest meets TERROR and at times NAPALM DEATH with some EYEHATEGOD flavor sprinkled in). This time around the music is much more punchy and the lyrics are more political. In an era of capitalists and consumers, nationalists and politicians, cops and crooks, BISHOP touch on most of the problems of the modern waning world such as heroin addiction, poverty, institutionalized racism, alcoholism, the alleged war on drugs, patriarchal order, overpopulation and other human conditions spiraling the world into its ultimate demise, creating a system of the elite class vs the servant class. In a world where profit trumps compassion, the solution is the easiest part, but the least likely to occur, due to socialization and hegemony. Everything In Vein will equally groove and enrage. Alligator City straight edge is alive and well.
