  Glimpse of a possible new genre May 31, 2002 This album was shamefully under-recognized in the music community - probably because of the unique blend of genres that the artists employed that is their trademark sound. It was "too hip-hop" for most industrialists, and "too industrial" for fans of techno and hip-hop. As a fan of all three types of music, I love this album and the sound. I think the three styles blend very nicely, and the bass is very delicious. :)
  Beat-heavy industrial with hip-hop undertones. July 15, 2001 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Non-Aggression Pact put together an impressive piece of work here, but it seems that few people ever noticed. I've heard some of their earlier work on compilations (which was pretty good) and their follow-up album, "Broadcast-Quality Belligerence" (which is also very good), but I believe that "9mm Grudge" was their best effort overall. The songs bring up issues of racism ("Blind Facts"), religion ("Bleeding Messiah"), and abusive relationships ("Battered Again" and many others) with an ugly but truthful poignancy. My favorites are "Wicked Painted Sun" ("Cover me in honey/Pick me up and love me") and "Data Rape" (check out the "time flies" sample loop in the background, taken from a Tears For Fears song). NAP doesn't sound like any other industrial band I've come across, at least not obviously so. They're danceable, but I don't recall ever having heard them at a club...
