In 1994, Dazzling Killmen, a quartet from the St. Louis area named after a line inanobscure, grotesque 1963 short story by Lucas Samaras, put out a record called Face of Collapse,their second and final full-length. By the following year, they had broken up. Face of Collapseis a milestone for underground extreme rock in the 90s and should be experienced by fans of everything from Slint to the Dillinger Escape Plan to Rush .In fact, there would be no Converge, Today is the Day or Dillinger Escape plan without this essential blueprint. As former Rolling Stone senior editor Hank Shteamer wrote ,No other music that I know of candeliver what this [music] delivers, either emotionallyits specific combination of creeping dread, frantic anxiety and seething rageor sonically: The grand, gothic power chords at the outset, sounding like some horror-movie overture. The thresher-like riff that follows, and then, the onset of one of the greatest sequences of aggressive rock music Ive ever heard: a sort of hypnotic death waltz...broken up by racing, scampering full-band interludes and giving way to a deranged, writhing climaxwith the guitars stabbing at oblique angles over the rhythm sections lockstep convulsionsthat feels at once vise-tight and completely unhinged. When the whole band kicks into the next break neck triplet riff, the effect is one of complete information overload. For the first time in 30 years, youre going to be able to hear this music live.
