Long after contemporaries from the (under)celebrated Reservoir Records/NY HC scene of the mid-'90s had called it quits, Staten Island's Murdock plowed forward with a self-released CD and a limited run 7" EP. The band's two-song contribution to this split, however, marks its finest hour. "Tainted" and "Peace Off" represent some of Murdock's most crushing work with melodic and emotive hardcore dodging between post-hardcore and screamo's obsolete labeling. Rorschach, Milhouse and Deadguy might all well. The Sutek Conspiracy play welldone screamo falling between To Dream Of Autumn, Orchid and Knives And Greenwater. One of the best bands during the best playing this kind of music during the late 90`s.
