(record review)THE NIGHT-“War With The World”

Eastern European scene is full of undiscovered bands and jewels from the neverending well of underground. THE NIGHT is one of such bands. Hailing from Odessa, Kiev they are conisting of the members of Kingpin and PowerPlay.

This is, as I understand their debut release. The album is recorded in Odessa, Ukraine and mixed and mastered in USA. There are 6 tracks on this record. They love to say that their music is a mix of Misfits, Black Flag, Type O Negative and Alkaline Trio. The Night´s music is pretty wild and raw but also melodic as in the opener “Absolute Power”. There is a lot of Black Flag aggression and noisy arrogance in “Subhuman” for me the most noise influenced and harsh track on the record. You can almost feel the dust in “Pyramid”. The singer reminds me a lot of Cancerslug´s Alex Story and the whole song structures too especially in “Night on Earth”. The title track is a noisy, distorted ode to this world´s destruction and nihilism. The last song “Love in Sunnydale” is my favourite and best on this record. Check out these guys, they deserve it!
