Described as “musical violence” by the band themselves, “Crowland” grabs hold of ears from its opening distorted guitar riffs. The band wastes no time establishing their characteristically forceful rhythm and hard-hitting instrumentation. Layering the instruments in clever ways, 9 O’Clock Nasty showcases their skill in songwriting as they ratchet up the control. Vocalist Ted Pepper leads the charge, his voice half singing, half yelling through the controlled chaos.

As the song progresses, more melody and harmony enter, making it an aurally intriguing ride full of unexpected turns. It keeps the energy flowing, going from loud to even louder with a bunch of cool twists. The band throws in different melodies and stuff, making the song a real head-bobber. Moving through different sections, the core intensity remains even as new instruments color the soundscape.
