Deride

First Round Knockout (TMC)
by Craig Regala

Spraken ze kick ass? Deride straddle the metalized dirt rock of Speedealer, Zeke, Lambs, Suplecs, etc., and where ’80s riff-core laps up grind ‘n’ roll. They might not win over the Pantera/Entombed fan club (what, you’re not a member? W.T.F.! Maybe the card got lost in the mail), but for a guy like me who felt betrayed when Machine Head got all Korn-y, this fits like a denim condom. Then again, maybe the Pantera/Entombed cadre will hop to this.
