Trust Nuclear Blast to have one
of their few non-weak NWOSM bands be this one-man side project of Napalm
Deaths' Mitch Harris. Harris thanks Napalm drummer Danny Herrera for the use
of his drums in the liner notes, and I'm left to wonder exactly what he used
them for, as the drums on this album certainly stem from a machine. The vibe
of Defecation seems to be more black-tinged "rock" than grind, and a couple
of tracks even sound pretty much like punk rock, as in the case of "Under
Surveillance". "Shortfall" was one of the few tracks which offered anything
able to keep one's mind form wandering. There seems to be a lack of tangible
energy on this album, or perhaps direction. Any of the songs could be used by
Napalm Death, including the lyrics, so the purpose of the band escapes me. Its
ability to grown on you seems, at this point, to have the parallel appeal of a
festering, malignant tumor.
