Sounds like you're really hanging in there when you're taken for one heart-racing, speeding crust punk metal, fuel burning exhilarating ride of disaster when Rotting Hammer toss you into their rocket propelled vessel without a seatbelt. Clinging To Life offers you an 8-minute crash, no; splatter-landing onto cold concrete. Hold onto your balls cause this demo will pull’em right off.

You get 5 tracks speeding to absolutely nowhere: 'Rising Tide', 'Clinging To Life', 'Blood Showers', 'No Filter' and 'The Cave'; match the track titles with the sonic drum and riffing ferocity you'll hear on this record then you have one hell of a memorable demo. It’s way too short for me to say much because I'll spoil it all for you (or have I already), so let me just sum it up by saying, walk with your own seatbelt.

I hope there is more to come from this band, they seem like a promising bunch of lunatics from Ohio and Clinging To Life is proof of that.

Rating: 7.7 out of 10
