Their previous two records on Revelation redefined “repetitive,” Unstoppable packs enough straight-up punk rock good times to make it worth casually playing.
Nuclear Blast seems convinced we want new records with the original Metal Church singer, David Wayne, as well as live recordings and now this side-project.

V.O.D. have always been respectable, ahead of the curve. I’ve stopped what I was doing repeatedly and skipped back to revel in a certain part again. Repeatedly.
Stuttering and annoying much of the time (with the tendency to work the band name into the lyrics), Puya bring a cool percussive take to a played-out sound.
Nice, dark, electronic-infused heavy brooding music. A debut.These guys have hints of depth. A decent cover of the Cure’s “A Night Like This” dimly sparkles.
