(review) POWER X CHUCK – Discography cassette

  This is old school release (on cassette tape) for a relatively new band playing old school hardcore. POWER X CHUCK come from Australia and they are maniacs of real old style hardcore with power violence influence here and there.  If you forgot how it should be done, this is it.  It nails every corner...

(review) BRAINCËLL/WÄRFEAR – split 7”EP

This is a great split from two bands from Malaysia.  Crust punk at its best, freshly recorded with a fresh sound, well known patents, but still, easy to listen to, mosh to and very attractive live, I bet.   BRAINCELL is more UK style crust punk with growling, ENT style, vocals.  Melody gave way to...

(review) Su19b – Demo 97 7”EP

  Su19b have been around since 1997 so expect a legendary Japanese gridncore played the hardcore way.  This is not noise noise noise, this is fast hardcore broken by sludgy bits that makes you feel you are listening to a 80s style NYHC, but only more grindy.  It’s a 1997 demo cassette released on a...

(review) CRESS – Hunt Saboteurs Association benefit 7”

This is an exceptional single from one of the most influential UK anarcho punk bands from the 90s.  Exceptional because it is the middle segment of the exceptional series of 9 singles that form a one big beautiful picture of a fox.  All records are benefit for Hunt Saboteurs Association so the cause is great. ...

(review) METH DRINKER/OPEN TOMB – split LP

  I am sure you’ve been to a party (my not straight-edge readers) when you had too much to drink or smoke and the world slowed down so fucking much that you dropped down not knowing when and where. And this moment when you disconnect is when this record stops.  But before it does, it...

(review) FINAL EXIT – Spreading The (S)Hits one-sided 12”EP

FINAL EXIT from Japan have been loyal to “play fast or don’t” ethics since 1994.  This release is one of the many they have in their discography but the one that really sticks out for me.  Primarily because it is short.  And not that I dislike music like that.  Not that I do not understand...

(review) AUGUST LANDMESSER/KACZYNSKI – split 12”EP

This record is the result of a unique friendship between both bands who are geographical neighbours, thus they play a lot together.   AUGUST LANDMESSER coming from Opole, Poland finally got to grips with this recording because this is their first proper one after five years of existence.  It’s about time.  I still do not...

(review) DEATH CRUSADE – Rakieta///Bomba CD

  DEATH CRUSADE have been around for almost three years now but their debut record saw daylight just moments ago.  Released on CD by the band themselves, on a highly limited to 50 copies cassette tape by Lärmo Records (gone already) as new trends dictate (popular on Discogs one day on your internet), and soon...

DØDSKAMP – fresh new band to unveil their brilliant demo

DØDSKAMP hailing from Lublin, Poland are a fresh newcomer to the scene.  They have just released their two-song debut demo which is a killer.  Heavy and brutal sound with terrifying and gloomy female vocals.  You want to hear more, don’t you? SANCTUS PROPAGANDA can’t wait to hear a proper release from them and review it. ...
