It's been a long time since we've seen a noise rock band approach the genre with the wild disregard that the Jesus Lizard used to. Toronto's Alpha Strategy seem worthy enough to take up the mantle. Lead singer Rory Hinchley has David Yow's demented, howling scream down pat, and the band takes noise to the extreme, brings it back to quiet, then back to the extreme again. Add in the noise rock pedigree of Steve Albini in engineering the record, and you've got one of the best noise recordings of 2018.
