"How deeply unsettling is Gene Wilder in 'Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory'? Like an otherworldly, amoral mad scientist, who manages to be simultaneous charming and terrifying. London digital-grind beast Kuntpuncher recognise this, flooding their debut EP 'Take Drugs and Eat a Kebab' with a churning, disorientating ocean of samples in which Wilder's nutty (centred) professor floats to the surface like your sweaty, dribbling uncle in a repressed abuse nightmare.
The preponderance of samples and throbbing, headache inducing electronics are so overwhelming, that the aural carnage they bookend takes a few spins to really register. Throat-slinger Doyle, best known to the kind of people who pretend to like bands who broke up when they were still listening to Norma Jean for Northern metallic hardcore/sludge bastards My War, hasn't lost his muscular roar that rides the low-end riffs like rocks in a freight wagon, but lashes out at schizophrenic highs. Some deliciously conventional chug emerges from the digital squall of Agoraphobic Nosebleed worship, disappearing back into the disorientating churning of programmed beats before you really get to grips with it – which to be fair, is probably what they're going for. You don't hum along to digital grindcore, Black Eye Peas covers notwithstanding."
