Casual Nausea are hardcore punk band from Ipswich, UK and this is their debut full length out with TNSrecords. I listened and reviewed the record for our zine.

They are describe as Gogol Bordello meets The Restarts, but after listening to the album I would say that this is not entirely true. Although there are some folky punk fun stuff in their song structures, these guys mainly rely on good old hardcore punk, a bit on the rawer side, yet enough melodic to put that catchy melody bug in your ear when listening. The record contains 19 songs, which is a great number of songs, but the record just does not get boring in any way and passes along and leaves you wanting more after it is over. There are some faster hardcore songs made for stage diving and waving your finger and fist in the air, but there are some punkrock midtempo songs and also Crass inspired music. The lyrics are personal, also about the survival in this life, scene, diy and punk. This is a great record and I would just love to see this band play live, because I am sure they are just tons of fun live. Recommended songs: Fuck Up, Demons, Pay Your Sins Away, Til The Day I Die.
