Bruisingly powerful scream rap noise from Prison Religion on Rabit’s amazing Halcyon Veil.Hailing from Richmond, Virginia, Prison Religion are one of the most hardcore, rap-related acts we’ve heard in years. No cock out business, just Philip Best levels of mic-burning bile and vitriol shrieked and expectorated over bludgeoning beats, field recordings and charred electronics.No song outstays it welcome. They all say their piece and get the fuuck on with the next one, from the electroid slosh and harsh holler of ‘Messenger’ to the stark EP highlight of ‘Aliciakeys’ and the speaker-worrying shudders of ‘Ansss1’, to the gabber gallop of ‘Yabbadabbdont’, and a final, cataclysmic descent into hellish strings on ‘Nibiru’.

Prison Religion’s screamo rap remixed by a top team including Swan Meat, Lee Gamble, Geng, Bonaventure, and Rabit for the latter’s Halcyon Veil label.Swan Meat dons metal gauntlets for a severe mauling of ‘Messenger’ battered with wrecking ball drums. Lee Gamble takes a rare step to the darkside with ‘Alicia Keys’, swerving thru fractured, spasmodic and thistly chicanery to a proper hardcore climax. You can trust Rabit to provide the set’s most feral and futuristic remix with a riotously delirious flip of ‘Ansss1’, while Geng tosses off into the void with ‘Yabbadabbadont’, and Bonaventure balances the rabid vocals of ‘Alicia Keys’ with effortlessly rolling techno bass.
