This came out in 1999 – or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):
Fast, loud rock bands are a dime a dozen.
But the truly heavy bands — the ones that boast a subterranean thump that whacks your sternum like some demented medic using a sledgehammer to perform CPR — are harder to come by. Meet Dunnville, Ont.’s Chore, a truly heavy band. The secret ingredient? Two, count ’em, two bassists anchoring the quartet’s progressively aggressive metal, which ranges from minute-long, Tool-like thrashers to Rush-length wizard-rock epics. But don’t go by me; head out to their next gig and hear it — not to mention feel it — for yourself.
