Making Punk A Threat Again!

  • 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!

  • Finally, the third LP from AGNOSY has arrived! 

    AGNOSY-cover

    Dark, heavy, galloping crust from the streets of London. AGNOSY is back to present us with a ferocious beast of an album that can only be forged by the anger and frustration of living in today’s world. “When Daylight Reveals The Torture” aggressively attacks evils such the current rise of fascism and animal abuse. It intelligently and passionately touches on the Afrin invasion and the revolution in Rojava and shows nothing but utter disgust toward the arrogance of humankind’s lust for greed and power that will inevitably lead us down paths of war and environmental devastation.

    AGNOSY – Live at SCUMFEST in London. 2011

    While lyrically AGNOSY are much more politicly straight forward this time around than on previous releases, musically they have expanded on their sound to create a dark and moody atmosphere while at the same time staying crust as fuck. To say they know what they are doing would be an understatement from this band of vets whose members have played in HIATUS, HEALTH HAZARD, and BEGINNING OF THE END.

    Long galloping intros are followed up by traditional d-beat, fierce solo’s are then meet with vicious vocals and pulverizing bass in a brilliant recording captured by Lewis Johns at The Ranch Production House and was mastered by Brad Boatright at Portland’s legendary Audiosiege. We then pressed on deluxe heavyweight 150-gram vinyl,  printed on reverse board jackets, and included an 11in x 22in gatefold insert to bring you a high quality and truly epic record.

    Review by Craig Hayes from “Your Last Rites”… 
    Swordwielder – System Overlord 
    Heavyweight punk fanatics take note: System Overlord is a fucking triumph. The long-awaited sophomore album from Gothenburg stenchcore band Swordwielder is a brooding behemoth, constructed from the filthiest and heftiest strains of punk and metal. System Overlord shimmers with apocalyptic visions, and it’s overflowing with all the grim atmospherics and intimidating intensity that defines consummate crushing crust.

    Too much hype? No way… And no apologies, either. Swordwielder deal in definitive stenchcore on System Overlord, and much like their full-length debut, 2013’s Grim Visions of Battle, the band’s latest release is a knockout. Swordwielder’s harsh, gruff and dark sound owes a significant debt to old school icons like Amebix, Axegrinder, Deviated Instinct, and Antisect, and they mix and mangle their influences and leave ’em to rot on the battlefield.

    Plenty of hammering rage drives System Overlord tracks like “Violent Revolution,” “Savage Execution” and “Cyborgs,” and thundering epics like “Corrupt Future” and “Northern Lights” exhibit subtler strengths, mixing guttural growls and clean vocals with crashing percussion and dirge-laden riffs. Connoisseurs of corpse-dragging crust will love the brute-force belligerence of “Absolute Fear,” “Nuclear Winter,” and “Second Attack,” which rain down like merciless mortar barrages. As a rule, all of System Overlord‘s mammoth tracks chug and churn with grinding muscle, while reeking of squalor and decay.

    Swordwielder exudes tightly coiled aggression from start to finish here—songs rise from the ashes of desolation, and resounding calls for action and resistance ring loud. If you’re a fan of heavy-hitters like Fatum, War//Plague, Carnage, Zygome, Cancer Spreading or (insert your favorite hefty crust crew here), System Overlord‘s trampling tempo and strapping sound are bound to appeal.

    “Sermon for the Bootlickers”

    Despite the inculcation of helplessness within each there remains great power. Ill at ease with such makes us ill. Learn to see the hand that feeds for what it is. You’ve been fooled if you think you’ve got no power. Refuse to be reduced to a consumer you’re a human being. Define yourself by more than wealth. Define yourself as a human. You don’t need what you’re being sold. Bend your knee to no authority but your own mind. You have the power to avoid the gilded trap. Avarice is what you’re conditioned for. Break the mold discover what’s really valuable to you.

0 Bill Bondsmen-Nineteen/Things Fall Apart 7 inch-review

  • November 18, 2012

  • · Reviews

First off I love this band had the pleasure of seeing them once in St. Paul.  IN DEFENCE opened up for them and it was awesome.  So when I got this you can’t imagine how excited I was.  So this record has 2 songs 1 on each side, so kind of a sweet throwback to 45’s large hole included. When I first got the record I noticed that it has a screenprinted cover which is awesome plus it’s on a dark purple wax.  So with this release there are 2 bad ass tunes first is “Nineteen”.  A really good distorted vocals with blistering guitar behind very low-fi recording sounds very DIY to me.  Like they recorded it in a basement or something.  Side B is called “Things Fall Apart” the shorter of the two tracks but still has the low-fi recording quality with gritty vocals.  Any punk rocker would like this f you like fast gritty fast punk rock plus when the B side stop it has a repeating groove which are always funny to have on a record.  I LOVE BILL BONDSMEN that is all.  (XbezerkerX)

0 Strong Intention-Razorblade Express 7 inch review

  • November 8, 2012

  • · Reviews

The first thing that caught my eye was the name MIKE IX WILLIAMS for being a fan of EYEHATEGOD. I was super excited to get home and listen to it right away.  As the title track  “Razorblade Express” starts off with really heavy guitars and then goes super fast into a fast as hell blast beat then slows back down then goes right back into it.  Super intense beginning plus this track had the guest vocals on it.  Next is “Messiah Whore” same thing super fast and super brutal track with crushing vocals all over that. Side A ends with “Holes in the Wall” and just like the last two tracks this sums up and amazing A side to the record.  I flip this bad boy over and am pounded with another track with MIKE IX on it called “3rd Space Gorilla Generator” again a sweet track which is a little slowed down from the rest of the tracks, really heavy and doom sounding to start off this side then all of a sudden goes far left and let the grind begin. “Rat Factory” is next more of the grind with super fast and well put together guitar. Lastly there is “Slaughter Intelligence” which is the shortest track on the whole record, but it does not disappoint  at all. For Fans of PHOBIA, EYEHATEGOD and EXHUMED.  (XbezerkerX)

Never heard of this band before but finding out more about them, this band is from Helsinki, Finland.  Apparently they do not play any shows. This is some down and gritty punk rock reminds me a lot of the Sub/hum/ans or Citizen Fish. A total of 4 tracks. Amazing guitar riffs are in the first song “48 Balls” next up is “You know What You Are” again another gritty punk rock song.  Now it’s time to flip over to the B-Side the first song on the b-side is “Who Wants it All” a very different start to this side not a very punky song kinda sounds like an 80’s song with the low vocals and kinda a keyboard sounding guitar/drum combination. Finally the last song is called “Strength Through Noise” very much like the last song with vocals but very strong guitar and more screaming then singing.  This is an amazing release I really hope the band sees this and will send me there first 3 e.p.’s because i would really like to check them out-(XbezerkerX)

Well what I got here is a 2 song demo from MESSENGERS.  First  track is called “Laid To Waste” which is a nice minute and a half of very fast guitar riffs with some very angry vocals laid down on top of it reminds me of INTEGRITY. Pretty much any hardcore band that is coming out right now very heavy and very angry and very well put together. Track number 2 is called “Rotting Away” which is the better of both songs.  This would go perfect on a Toxic Breeds Funhouse Comp.  So if you’re into heavy, dark, angry hardcore with the breakdowns this is for you. I do apologize though I do not have any info for the band no site no nothing. (XbezerkerX)

Spreading Evictions is a two piece crust band from California is what I found out there is no info on the cd or outside cover.  It was really hard to tell what there name is by there logo all I could read out was egoism on the cover. So after all that I put the cd in to listen to it and all the tracks are instrumental which are not bad but there’s no vocals and to me why make music without vocals it has no meaning then. All 7 tracks sound pretty much the same. Crust without vocals what’s the point? (XbezerkerX)

First nice screenprinted cover inside and out.  Second stamped center labels if this isn’t DIY then what is?  So I put this record on the player and wow this is some very heavy and very fast music. Starting off the record is a song called “Abwesend” no clue what it means but it’s an amazing start to this record. Next is “No Time” a little slower then the first song but equally heavy very thrashy feel for the guitar and very doomy vocals. I am loving this so far time to flip this record over. The secod side starts off with “Licht” which the record is named after and this song does not disappoint .  This has a very good sound to it reminds me of ENGLISH DOGS. Lastly there is “Stuff V” a last helping of doomy thrash to leave you wanting more from these guys.  Be on the lookout for these guys in America. (BerzerkerX)

Here is a nice slab of wax all the way from Japan the only English on the record is there name and what the 7 inch is called.  Other then that everything else is in Japanese so this 7 inch has 2 songs couldn’t tell you the names but the a side is awesome very relaxing and calm song. The B side is very upbeat and poppy so I would assume that this is a very pop punk song it’ll have you tapping your feet to the beat of the music  again very easy on the ears. I really wish I knew what they were saying.  All the info I could find was the labels website. So go check out the label and pick this up if you’re into feeling happy and joyful. (XbezerkerX)

Ready to get your asshole blown away by some no frill straightforward Grind.   This 2 piece band hail from the sewers of Minneapolis to pulverize your ear drums with some short but sweet morsels of blast beats that are put together so you can actually listen to it.  Unlike some of those so called grind bands out there that use drum machines this drummer is insane behind the kit the faster the better for him.  Not to leave the vocals out with screams, growls and groans. With song titles like “Mystery Grind Theater” “Macho Madness” and “Blast The Crusher”, to name a few nothing over the top with titles or images they let the music speak for itself. I personally love all the wrestling references  they have and logos they do.  If you like grind in the ways of BACKSLIDER and Faction X Disaster then you’ll love these guys always touring the Midwest look for these guys best served live. (Berzerker)
