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...
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...
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...
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. ...
If you’re not familiar with BESTHÖVEN, dis is a DIS ONE MAN ARMY from Brazil. Dis explanation plus the logo style say it all. So you know what to expect from dis little record. With more than 30 releases on account, BESTHÖVEN is another die hard DISCHARGE fan that travels around the world to...
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...
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...
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...
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...
Scottish queer punks have delivered their big boy record. Still not sure what format this wil be available on but tape is on the list for sure. Violence doesn’t help but power violence does, at least for them, to get their message across. Prepare yourself for a 10 minute noise assault on your ears with...
When a release like this hits your mailbox you know that the world is a terrible place to live. You know that the people who pull the strings are not to be trusted to say the least, and that they are beats. Whether god exists, it’s up to you, but when you are faced with...
Early 80s (that’s previous century) brought HIT PARADE. The punk band that decided to play no distortion and noise – instead they took on “disco” tunes, pumped them with highly political lyrics and got their message across via CRASS RECORDS platform. Fast forward do late naughties (that’s this century) and you get NACHTHEXEN. The all-female...
EXTINCTION OF MANKIND have been around since 1992, so they are veterans of the UK punk. They started when others finished and when time passed (20 something years) and I get the chance to hear their fourth upcoming full length album, I realise they are one of the very few who are true to what...
October 31st brought another stupid terror assault in NYC where inncocent lives were lost. October 31st also brought the release of the all new BRATAKUS EP. The quick and responsive attack from those two vegan straight edge girls from Scotland. And although it is packed with two spooky halloween tribute songs you get the feeling...
Thrash metal on SANCTUS PROPAGANDA! Yes! And there are very good reasons for that. PHRENETIX are a fairly young band operating within the frames of the DIY and underground thrash and punk scene and their approach to music and lifestyle suggests PHRENETIX is just more than music and headbanging. They come from Vilnius, Lithuania and...
