We Deserve Much Worse is the third album by the Finnish grindcore group Deathbound. Stylistically they continue on the path of straightforward in-your-face grindcore, but this time around the band sounds a lot more mature than before. The songs have a solid rockin' groove that entrances the listener along with catchy riffs and riveting blastbeats... unfortunately the album gets a bit repetitive despite its short length.

Quite surprisingly the album opener "Deceving Shortcuts" (possibly misspellt intentionally, who knows) and the last track "Ward 77" clearly stood out from rest of the material. If only the whole album would be of the same quality, Deathbound's record would clearly rise above the average but as such We Deserve Much Worse only has its sporadic moments. Regardless, diversity is seldom found on grindcore releases, and Deathbound is still one of the more creative grindcore groups. While the songstructures are slightly bumpy at times, there's not much else to point out. Majority of grindcore listeners will find this release to their liking.
