Yes, probably each review of this album ever written mentions that the term Homo Iratus means "angry human" in Latin, and the concept was made by the band as its own interpretation of the next evolutionary step from Homo Sapiens.
This of course, was taken out of the info sheet that came with the promotional copy of this album, and makes me think, if they put all that information there, I must be because they want us to put that in our review right?

Anyway, these Greeks formed back in 1998, and originally they played Grindcore in the vein of Carcass and Napalm Death, soon they moved to Death-Trash with tribal elements á la Sepultura, now in their third musical personification, they like to be referred as "grinding-death-mosh-core", so sure whatever you want, classify yourselves how many times you like, my job is de-classify the band and show the readers my perception.

I've given this record several spins, and didn't understand it very well at first, I mean, this sounds very Metalcore at times, hints from their Grindcore past can be detected here and there, the vocals are angst driven and the riffs are chunky at times, my classification? Grinding-Death-Mosh-Core from Greece!

The lyrics deal with actual society themes, which they're always nice to read/listen, from political subjects to modern world matters, the band does a fantastic job lyrically speaking, sadly the polemical lyrics are much more interesting than the music itself.

While not a awful album, tends to get boring when you reach the middle point, Is maybe the modern influences in the music, maybe is that the grunt/scream tends to get annoying after some songs, I don't know.
I don't now if it's me, but for some strange reason, the best songs in the album are in the last part of this, songs like "e-land Phobia" "Binary Clone Epoch" and "On Fertile Ground" are my favorites, and coincidentally, are the last songs of the album.
Aggressive, polemical but a little annoying at times, I'll wait and listen the natural evolution of this band in their next release.
