Straight out of the bowels of Bloomfield, Ontario comes the Polidicks, quite possibly the vilest, crustiest and most vicious punk rock band to emerge since Napalm Death first screamed onto the scene combining metal and punk in 1982.
Since 2001, The Polidicks have been spreading their own brand of hardcore crusty punk across the band. The band emerged with the release of their debut, Weapons of Mass Distraction, a scathing political statement that brought comparisons to the everyone from Dead Kennedy’s to Napalm Death an Extreme Noise Terror. Soon after, the group released their sophomore, No Peace? No Chance, in 2003. The album showed the band as true innovators
With the release of their third album, Mutenation (Wounded Paw), the Polidicks have taken people’s expectations of what punk rock is and completely pissed all over them. With their blistering fusion of death metal grind, the snarl old school punk rock and a lightning fast rhythm section, The Polidicks are a crust and grind infested exercise in brutality.
With songs like “Kill Dr. Phil” featuring a guest appearance by the good Doctor himself, “Money Grubbing Motherfucker” and “Minimum Rage”, The Polidicks are truly pissed off punk rock combined with some of the most savage vocals you’ve ever heard.
“..15 ear-splitting tracks that whiz by in a heart attack-inducing 25 minutes and 39 seconds! Whenever you find yourself starting to buy into the MTV brainwashing of what should be considered "Punk" these days, you need to have a CD like this on hand to wake you the hell up! This is the nasty side of Punk, the side most eyeliner-wearing, band-of-the-week followers couldn't even dream of handling. The vocals are insanely harsh, and to my more Metal-attuned ear, come off as sounding straight outta the Goregrind & Grindcore style of vocal delivery. The songs... well, they're freakin' fast, and when they're not freakin' fast, that's because they're blindingly fast! However, despite all the sonic mayhem going on, the tracks are actually pretty catchy as well. ...catchier than they should be in fact. Basically, if you dig bands such as Napalm Death, Nausea, Prostitute Disfigurement, Extreme Noise Terror, Sewn Shut, Deviated Instinct, Third Degree, etc. then this disc should give you immediate wood.” – Urotsukidoji’s Pad
“Polidicks are like a cross between Anal Cunt, S.O.D. and Total Chaos. Like GG Allin not throwing poop and scumming about killing Dr. Phil in the most gruesome of ways.” - SUPERBITCH MAGAZINE
“This is grind-punk with a serrated metallic edge and it’s entertaining as hell! Mutenation is an aggressive good time. Besides, couldn’t you use a little punk militancy in your life?” – LIVE 4 METAL
