Detësto are d-beat crust hardcore punk band coming from city called Campinas, Brasil. They released three songs on the compilation called “O SOM DO ABISMO” vol.1  with a bunch of other Brasilian bands and I really love bands from that country because they have some special vibe down there. Knowing the poverty, many bands really live what they sing about. Compilation is released via Discördia records (Fofão/Besthöven DIY label). As for this band three songs, they are your typical d-beat crust punk, nothing new and special, but I really enjoyed listening to it. I cant wait for the new e.p. which the band plans to release in the first half of 2018.

Also, drop a few words to the guys, I am sure it will mean much to them:

(record review)THE FRIGHT-“Canto V”(Steamhammer/SPV)

coverI really dont know how come I have never heard The Fright before. This is already their fifth studio album and first one to come out on Steamhammer/SPV label.

The album contains 10 songs of excellent melodic gothic rock with metal and punk influences. The music pays tribute to the bands influences like I hear a bit of Type O Negative in “Drowned in Red” or 69Eyes in some of the songs and a bit of To/Die/For in some song structures, but that is only me. Of course, the band also has an impressive dose of their own touch and I really loved their music.

The guitars and drums are more metalic than poppy and the singing and lyrics hold just that, how shall I put it, German sense of melodrama and tragedy mixed with hope and pain. Weltschmerz? Sorrow? Wickedness? You bet! All inclusive on this record. My absolute highlight and the best song on this record is “Century Without a Name” which I listened for a couple of times and I wish that I wrote such hit. Very beautiful song. In all, great album.

7,5/10

(record review)BODYJAR-“Terra Firma”

Because of its longivity for now almost over twenty years, Australian veterans Bodyjar hailing from Melbourne deserve the uttermost love and respect. Ripping through stages on every continent they earned themselves a strong and big legion of fans.

This is their new e.p. containing 4 songs and it is awesome. The e.p. has something for every profile of punk rock fans. From the more rockish pure punkrock songs like “Get it Right” to high energetic octane fueled hardcore punk bombs like “Elon Musk” and emotional heartfelt “Burning it down for nothing”, this e.p. is a little chest of melodic punkrock treasure for you to discover. Awesome! 8/10
