Straight out of the gate, Cato's 'Make It Grimey' brings the ruckus with a buzzing lead that thrashes back and forth like a dropped fire hose blasting out jets of sound. A spliced vocal snippet declares that 'whatever I play, it's got to be...grimey' and that's Cato's watchword for this track: even in the quieter moments, stripped back to off-beat bass stabs and a halfstep, delayed snares echoing in the expanse, there's a menace lurking in the horror-movie pads, and when that compulsive buzz returns for the second drop, its potency is doubled by a contrasting, detuned twin.
