The band isn't reinventing the wheel here, but that's not what matters. It's more important to note that Owen Hart somehow sandwiches speed metal, thrash, hardcore and death metal together - a combo that would be easy to screw up - on Earth Control.
The best tracks here are the grimiest ones: the songs full of caterwauling vocals and screaming, unrelenting guitars.
If meth heads weren't so busy selling their stuff, they might have beat Owen Hart to making music like this: jacked-up, cranked-out, over-the-top metal with a perma-boner. Save for their drummer, who is no Dave Lombardo (yet), they make Slayer look a bunch of old guys. And you have no idea how much it pains me to say that.
