The long awaited debut LP from NYC’s FLOWER “Hardly A Dream” is finally set to arrive.

FLOWER’s tedious approach to writing/creating/drawing their debut LP was carefully thought out and the result is a monumental anarcho punk /crust record.

“Hardly A Dream” Takes us on a bleak journey through the dark side of society. As soon as you drop the needle a dark atmosphere is immediately created with a slow intro featuring arpeggio guitar work that builds into pummeling d-beat crust. The albums vocals then leave you with a feeling of being crushed by the ever-present weight of living through our modern world of late stage capitalism that was built on the falsehoods of the so called American dream, religious hypocrisy’s, nationalism, and the greed of humankind.
FLOWER take many cues from predecessors and are most often (and rightfully so) compared to NAUSEA but they also take a heavy influence from ANTISECT, SACRILEGE & other greats. The artwork has a very RUDIMENTARY PENI feel and the record comes with an amazing 24.5 X 34.75 CRASS style poster jacket. All art work was meticulously hand drawn and overseen by the guitarist Willow in true DIY style and spirit. Willow was also cool enough to draw up a special shirt for the record release featuring an alternative PROFANE EXISTENCE backprint!

..Good point(s). “Truth” is truly, and infinitely stranger than fiction. We exist, (most subsist), in a world where instant gratification is the rule, not the exception.., and this i.g. is available immediately, and always.., and so is the opportunity to learn from our actions/mistakes..and that, too, is a choice…You could say that EVERYTHING has a “pricetag” attached, if you care to look…This is neither “good” nor “bad”.., that distinction depends entirely on how you choose to look at it. This is where the “difficulty” lies for us, because NOONE can escape the responsibility for their own existence forever… Vigila pretium libertatis..(!!)
