Project Mayhem - Rock Up Fucked Album review

Project Mayhem embody much of their (fictional) terrorist namesake’s propensity for chaos and loud abrasive behavior exemplified in their new single Rock Up Fucked. Blasting ahead with raucous guitar and high octane vocals and break-neck drumming, I’m not sure if the track outlines  an awesome night out in which a most excellent time is had by all except for the straight laced bummers in the corner or the most epic party crashing of all time. Either way its a punk-rock party anthem in the same league of beer-fuelled destruction as Black Flag’s TV Party, no surprises but if you were expecting weebly wobbly bass lines and reverb drenched vocals then your in the wrong place, hell you’re on the wrong planet. Project Mayhem are a punk rock band and this song is straight up balls-in-your-face punk rock captured in one take, warts and all just like it should be. Somehow Project Mayhem have the nerve to make it ridiculously catchy as well, so do yourself a favour and go check out some home-grown rawk n roll.
