If like me you're the sort of person who occasionally likes to beat himself about the head with a rubber mallet in time to the music, then Fluffy will be just your sort of band. This is a crossover of thrash/punk/hardcore which grinds itself into your spirit from start to finish. The acid-throated vocalist shouts the lyrics at you, often unintelligibly, the bass and drums drive relentlessly underneath the crashing repetition of the guitar. All tracks are short and sharp and the whole thing clocks in at just over twenty-five minutes for twelve songs. On the occasions when the lyrics could be made out I found them to be very pointed criticisms of Fluffy's home country and the apathy of many churches, but the liner notes encourage us not to take them too seriously. I don't know if the average British Christian music fan is ready for this, but I love it!
