Press Reviews Label head Scott Beebe (also from Holocaust Theory) names this full length after the number of days Americans were held hostage in Iran during 1979-80 (Savak was the name of the Shah of Iran's secret police whose tactics helped lead to islamic revolution that sent the Shah into exile), a terrifying that Beebe manages to capture fairly well with this dark, unrelenting soundblast. Things start out 'merely' as dark ambience ('Savak', 'Claiming Responsibilty), but soon enough the title track unleashes a furious, rigid rhythm that mutates slightly from concussive track to concussive track. Brutal, scary stuff. Best of the lot, and one of the top noisenik releases of 2000.
