A Horse Called War - Good For Glue (and nothing else)

APF Records, out of Manchester UK, are fast becoming vanguards
of the UK Sludge scene, boasting a venerable Roster including 
BATTALIONS, BONGCAULDRON, MASTIFF and PIST to 
name a few, have now unleashed another mind-crippler in the 
form of A HORSE CALLED WAR's new release "Good For Glue 
(And Nothing Else)"


An instant knuckle-duster in the face comes at you with the opener,
"Dog Is Dead" - raw, visceral Grind that'll put you on your ass on 
it's way past towards "Old One Eye", a sickening lurch from Doomed 
low-blows to Crusted apoplexy...'Pardon The Pun's bouncing, booming 
rhythms throw you around like a Rottweiler's rag-toy and bury you in 
the litter tray...The creeping death that is 'Don Frye' is a Titan-gripped 
chokehold on the senses...cavernous and infernal. The closer, 'Woodpusher' 
fires off parting blast-rivets of brutal, unflinching Misery and scoffs at 
your burning corpse.....AHCW have nailed a sound that is truly crippling 
and envigorating simultaneously...a credit to their Style, Talent and Intent! 
Unquestionable 5 Stars.
