Album Review: Neckbeard Deathcamp – So Much For The Tolerant Left (Prosthetic Records)

In wrath-fuelled allegiance with the rising fires ov antifascist metal in America and in support ov their Free Speech in America tour with Dryad, No Convictions, Theories, and Wvrm. Neckbeard Deathcamp presents the second assault ov their unstoppable crusade ‘So Much for the Tolerant Left’. Out on May 24th 2019 via Prosthetic Records.

We didn’t love the first single, What Are the Cargo Pockets For Lanza? Extra Mags? You can read our review of that song here. Negativity for that track aside, we approached this album with hope. Neckbeard Deathcamp’s uncompromising antifascist approach and statements is something we can get behind. We also love black metal. Perfect right?

Well, no. Sadly this is just not a great album.

It’s an absolute wall of noise where picking out anything listenable is near impossible. Not that Neckbeard Deathcamp care, this is exactly what they’re going for and ‘fuck you’ if you don’t like it.

That’s not to say it hasn’t got things to like though. Shitpostnacht’s swirls around us with feral brutality, Bricks out for Harambe’s ear-splitting feedback is followed by hellish sounds and Unironically Calling Someone the Untermensch is the sound of tortured souls filtered through a cavern of death. Strong stuff.

However, what can you say about the likes of Horseshoe Theory? It is 10 minutes of rumbling fuzz that is utterly pointless. A lot of the other tracks just go on and on, pushing the limit of what a person will put up with. Sure, it’s Neckbeard Deathcamp making a statement but when it’s so unlistenable, what’s the point?
