A Profound Hatred of Man [PA]

Performer: Shai Hulud
Distributor: Redeye Music Distribution

Notes: Wow, this is intense! It doesn't even matter that there are only three songs on A Profound Hatred of Man, it's good enough to influence another page in the maturity of hardcore. Sure it's heavy, sure there's lots of metallic guitar crunches, and sure enough they're pretty angry, but the Shai Hulud aren't a bunch of muscleheads. Instead, there's more of a developed, complex sound to the point where each song will fly into a hundred different directions before it ends; it's more "grown up" in comparison to all the hard guy mentality that's infiltrated the hardcore scene. This is definitely a sign of better things to come. ~ Mike DaRonco Profound Hatred of Man originates in 1997, when Shai Hulud issued its first single. Since that time, this Florida hardcore unit has broken so many barriers inside and outside the genre its almost difficult to classify them. Profound Hatred of Man. issued by Revelation. assembles together the bands' first single and album of the same title. The breakneck tempos, crushing guitars, tempo shifts, and genre changes are all here, especially in their treatment of covers such as Bad Brains' "Fearless Vampire Killers," Metallica's "Damage Inc.," and Negative Approach's "Lost Cause." ~ Thom Jurek
