v.a. - NAIVE - (Earache-UK-1992)


 Just giving this a 20th anniversary listen, I'm blown away. It becomes so obvious that at that time Earache was THE leading label for category-defying heavy music. Some of the greatest heavy string players are featured on it (Justin Broadrick, James Plotkin, Bill Laswell, Al Cisneros, Matt Pike), all of whom had already written major chapters in heaviness or were starting to do so.
Still wondering why it sounds so fresh ...
