F.U.B.A.R. - Lead Us To War
F.U.B.A.R. is back with a new release, Lead Us To War, and it is an all out grindcore assault, barely pausing to address the wounded or the dead. The majority of the album has an average song time clocking in around one minute with the relatively long anthem of the title track that runs for over four minutes. This album is an exercise in fury and aggression, raw and unfiltered. That is wonderfully refreshing and a little tragic. It is a negative in that it’s difficult to get into some tracks when things are slightly off beat, if you are looking for some things to sync up when it comes to pace and rhythm. It’s quite amazing when you try to process all the frantic activity going on at once.
This is not a refined album by any means, as there are other bands out there in the genre that deliver more focused sonic attacks, but F.U.B.A.R. does a fantastic job in not creating the dam, but blowing a hole in the reservoir and flooding the listener fast and overwhelmingly. That said, the album works in small doses, but trying to sit through the entirety of the album may be a bit trying for those with lesser attention spans.
