Hel And Taz Have Been Writing And Playing Music Together Since 2006. They Have Since Gone On To Be Described In Such Verbose Terms As "bloody Awful" "horrible" And "disgusting" Reviews-
Some Serious Girl Rocking In A Shockingly Male-Dominated Genre Undersmile Prefer Slow And Spooky Over Fast And Brutal. Imagine Linda Blair Of The Exorcist Fronting Melvins Or Flipper. In A Cave. At Midnight. So Seriously Sludgy You Have To Wash The Grime Off Your Skin Afterward And While They May Take Things Very Very Slowly Like An Oil Tanker They're Unstoppable." - Nightshift Magazine "A Sea Of Dead Snakes Is An Intoxicating Slab Of Doomy-Sludgy Heaviness Which Is Absolutely Mandatory For Any Swamper." "Melodies Are Sinister But Infectious As They Possess A Distinct Groove. Undersmile Make A Haunting Crushing Blend Of Heavily Distorted Psychedelic-Tinged Sometime Dronish Doom-Sludge Metal Variably Sharing Features With The Tunes Provided By Other Swamp-Hosted Bands Like Drone Throne Wizard Smoke Dopefight Ultralord Lords Of Doubt Etc." - Sludge Swamp "Undersmile Are A Four-Piece Playing Something The Experts Call “sludgecore ” Indeed It Is But It’s Their Own Very Singular Brand. They Show The Expected Hallmarks Of This Genre The Big Death-March Riffs And The Slow But Unrelenting Rhythm Section Laying Waste To All In Its Way. Their Biggest Asset However Is The Haunting Harmony Vocals From Hel Sterne And Taz Corona-Brown The Way Their Voices Drift Together Is Somewhat Enchanting As If Two Damned Souls Are Entwined In Some Kind Of Slow Motion Combat. Contains Unadulterated Doom." - Music In Oxford read less
