Peace Through Tyranny

by Kill Division

supported by

ufobigfoot From the first chords of the lead in to the Terrorizer cover to close out the album this is a non-stop buzzsaw of OG style grind. Blasts, grooves, tempo changes, this release has it all. Infinitely listenable and ranks right up there with some of the best grind from any era while still sounding fresh and current in today’s world. Kill Division is killing the game. Favorite track: Surrounded by Filth.

Frederf Straight forward, punishing throwback deathgrind courtesy of an assembly of extreme metal Avengers led by one of Malevolent Creation's finest vocalists. It's probably not very metal to refer to as any album as "a real treat" but that's exactly what Kill Division has delivered here. Respect!!

donnieofthedead Grind that fits the vibe of 2023 perfectly. And a Terrorizer cover!

Frank J. Jizawolski Kyle Simmons on vocals? Absofuckinlutely. This is exactly what grindcore needs. Tits

heavymetalpicker what am I gonna say about this that hasn't already been said? Been a fan of Kyle and Gus for 25 years. This is Kyle's best vocal performance since the Only Law is Survival. Gus is a superb songwriter, and here we get to hear him play guitar rather than drums. The recording job is excellent. It's both raw and clear at the same time. Can't wait for another album. I will post a review on my youtube channel. Favorite track: Peace Through Tyranny.

about

Kill Division are a grindcore act that embody and honor the essence of grind's humble beginnings from luminaries in the scene.

"Kill Division is a nod to the old way of doing things, a group formed to blast through grindcore in the style of Terrorizer and Napalm Death, particularly in the style that late guitarist Jesse Pintado wrote. On their new album, Peace Through Tyranny, the quartet keep things simple: fast-as-fuck drumming, crunchy guitars and bass, and half-intelligible growls with an anti-war sentiment."
- Decibel Magazine

"Kill Division’s Peace Through Tyranny is so damn catchy, expertly played, and ferocious, which makes this one of the best grind albums I’ve heard in decades. Catchy grindcore is tough to pull off but each song on this album is catchier than the previous one. This is the best grind album of 2022 and if you can’t get enough of Napalm Death, Terrorizer, Misery Index, Squash Bowels, Nasum etc.. and really need something new to melt you and your pet goldfish’ face off then this is a Buy or Die of the highest order. This KILLZ!!!!",
- Frank Rini, Teeth of the Divine

"Kill Division set out to deliver something that embodies the chaos of grind in its purest form and get anyone and everyone pumped from listening to it. It’s a simple and effective approach, made all the more enjoyable because the talent in this band are capable of doing it justice.
Don’t over-think it. Just press play and be consumed by the ferocity of unmitigated grinding heavy metal at its best.
- Games, Brrraaains, & a Headbanging Life

"The debut of Kill Division (by the way, what a name adequate to the content) is half an hour of barbarism at the highest level. Yes, you can find some similarities to Napalm Death with Pintado era or early Terrorizer (we even have a cover of "Barely Alive" for dessert), but Kyle&co. so intelligently melt everything into their own style that there's noother way but to take the hats off. An absolutely crushing album, you may say, the younger brother of "World Downfall" from year twenty-two. There will be no better album in this genre this year. It's done!"
- Apocalyptic Rites

" It is very obvious that they love this style of music it and it comes completely naturally to them. Because the sounds of our youth are always there in us and returning to them is always familiar. From fans to fans of the good old grindcore."
- Rockway.gr

"After almost 24 minutes it's over (much too quickly). Peace Through Tyranny doesn't reinvent the genre wheel, but it does everything right. Big wrecking balls meet clumsy lumps of lead, the production is wonderfully rough, the presentation is fun from start to finish. You shouldn't expect miracles from Kill Division, but their debut is more than entertaining and cleverly plays off the class of individualists as an uncompromising, biting unit."
- Demonic Nights

I just found these guys and after celebrating Fearsick I immediately came here and had to buy this as well. It might eben be better than Fearsick but who cares. Both are phenomenally good. Old schoolish perfection with powerful modern production. Every song is a fucking killer. mourner

I'm kicking my own ass for somehow missing this when it released. Expertly arranged death metal with kick drums that could demolish a high-rise. zirtonic

The perfect mix of (old school) death thrash and (modern) slam death. With a great sense for groove and impressive amount of variation. I'll keep an eye on these guys - especially on their other profile where this is a little cheaper and new stuff is available. mourner
