Was absolutely ecstatic to finally get my hands on a copy of 'Globalisation' by the one and only Alan Reeves. This release proudly stands as one of my favourites amongst the extensive Deathchant discography (no easy task!) masterfully combining all the right ingredients in that distinctive Micron style to deliver a concentrated slice of timeless hardcore perfection.

No matter the number of times I hear them, each track on ‘Globalisation’ continues to sound fresh and relevant to my ears. The level of subtle and conspicuous variation within and between each tune is truly astounding. Never has labeling a release as “insane” been so appropriate.

The task of selecting the “pick of the bunch” is a difficult one but ‘Urban Splash’ and ‘Psychotoxic’ in particular, maintain a psychotic, hauntingly dark and driving energy that I find almost incomparable to other releases, both past and present, from this genre.
