Metallic hardcore wrecking crew Purgatory have delivered one of the year's heaviest beatdowns with Cold Side of Reality, their new album. Every riff and breakdown feels designed to maximize violence, which is exactly where Purgatory succeed. In combination with vocalist Matt Anderson, whose vocals drip with rage, they've found their strength: knuckle-dragging metallic hardcore of the highest order.
