Label: Deep Six

Released 2024

Arguably the most potent musical force Australian music has ever seen, Perth’s Extortion are set to launch a fresh attack on the senses with their latest balls-out thrash incursion, “Loose Screws.”  A 12-track effort, “Loose Screws” pushes Extortion’s well-established power-violence sound to face-ripping new extremes. Recorded across three continents, the basic tracks were laid down at Polymorph Studios in Oakland, California by producer Dan Rathbun (Tragedy, His Hero is Gone, Talk Is Poison), then completed vocals in Perth at Bergerk! Studios, assisted by long-time producer Al Smith (Blkout!, Jaws, Clever Species).  As one final flourish, UK-based celebrity Extortion fan, Barney Greenway of Napalm Death, added his unmistakable roar to the aptly titled “Grind To A Halt”.  (Deep Six Records #126)
