Boundaries know exactly what they want to do, how they want to sound, and where they want to go. Disregarding trends, fads, and whatever the flavor-of-the-month may be, the band hyper-focus on a full-scale sensory onslaught of their own design. They stretch their sound almost to a breaking point, reining in fits of polyrhythmic bloodletting with a respite of powerful and poignant melodies.

For as extreme as the sonic dynamics are, it’s the extremity of the group’s intent that makes their signature style dangerous and utterly alive.
