PURITY CONTROL is a great new hardcore band from
Toronto that live in the power violence arena which is a place I like to dwell.
The band features Payson who originally played in this little known band from
Truro, Nova Scotia called CAPITAL DEATH. They were incredible and each of the
band members have gone on to play in incredible bands (CAREER SUICIDE and the
ENDLESS BLOCKADE to name two). Other members in this band moonlight in S.H.I.T.
and ABYSS so the talent of this band is nothing to take lightly. They are power
houses in their own right and when they get together they make this short sharp
bursts of anger reminiscent of CROSSED OUT with the heavy bass driven
structures found in PISSED HAPPY CHILDREN. These are cues from the some of the
pillars in the power violence scene but the unrelentless speed at which songs
like “Dear Life” are played at make you realize that this sound has been
brought up to date. In fact, I have heard this described as breakneck
bludgeoning music which I tend to think is accurate of the pace and heaviness
at which PURITY CONTROL play. This recording was mixed and mastered by Will
Killingsworth of ORCHID fame so that is something of note to all you Y2K emo
violence followers. And if you like their recordings you really should see them
live. (http://puritycontrolhc.bandcamp.com/)
