Album Review: Puig Destoyer - Puig Destroyer

Cameron Cooper
StarStarStarHalf Star

"The deliciously short songs are jam-packed with enough killer riffs and harrowingly raw drumming to get you moshing."

More Puig Destroyer Puig Destroyer

Yasiel Puig is an outfielder for the LA Dodgers; Puig Destroyer is a grindcore band.

With the context out of the way and the hardcore punk devastation of the band’s EP pumping, one gets to the fact that Puig Destroyer is unquestionably a “gimmick” band: every song is about baseball, with the humour of the lyrics completely lost on those unfamiliar with the sport. Fortunately, the deliciously short songs are jam-packed with enough killer riffs and harrowingly raw drumming to get you moshing, whether you know the difference between a sinker and a curveball or not.
