Day Of Bad Decisions is five track ride into bone-rattling ‘n’ ragingly raw HNW from this long-running Tennessee-based project. The digital release features one twenty-five-minute track, and four seven-minute tracks.

The album is a self-released digital affair. Artwork wise we get a monochrome picture of a toilet set on some waste ground. The tracks here were recorded between March 2020 and June 2021. The album can be downloaded from just here. 

The release opens with “What Could Possible Go Wrong”- and this is the longest of the five tracks at spot on the twenty-five minutes mark. The 'wall' brings together a rapid ‘n’ slightly roam bass judder, with a loose and skittering static tone. Both elements have a subtle amount of play in their flow- with the judder becoming more buffeting and the static tone getting more manic, but the pace of the whole ‘wall’ remains decidedly urgent and sreadly speeding throughout. I’m get images of a huge tank ploughing along a abounded and weathered city street, with a selection of bent and ripped steel sheets in its tracks. The whole track hooks you in & keeps your attention well, and is a good example of a mid-length wall-craft.

Next, we have the selection of four seven-minute tracks- these go from the raging ‘n’ rolling churn meets rattling skitter of “Bad Idea 1#”. Onto heavily cluttering bass hack weight of “What Was I Thinking”. There’s the crusty judder meets jumping static grain weave of “Bad Idea 2#”. With the album finished off with the jagged judder ‘n’ rolling roast of “Porcelain/Ceramic Destruction” which features some neat reeling on ‘n’ off static grain layers, which may or may not be there- making it one of my favourite moments here.

If you are after plain ‘n’ simple HNW- that is both raging and totally unforgiving in its attack, then Day Of Bad Decisions will certainly fit that bill extremely well.
