The Obliteroids are hailing from Anderson, South Carolina. This is their new release containing 8 songs of punk rock, kind of mixture between street punk, especially in vocals and rawer guitar work, horror punk and yes, you read it right, synth punk. This is not your typical horror punk clone band, it is quite original in some song rhythm and change from almost scifi movie soundtrack to punk rock. The lyrics deal with serial killers, being yourself in awesome allegory Creature, phantoms, great songs like The Ballad of Cindy and Fred, my personal favorite The Wax Phantom or Slasher Meets Werewolf. I love the use of piano intros some samples and clever use of synths to add to the aggression where needed, but also to add some melody and melancholy where needed making me remember why I love horror punk so much in first place. This one is for name your price on Bandcamp, so go listen and show some love. I am sure the guys in the band will appreciate it.

Thin Ice are hardcore band from Schweinfurt, Germany and this is their new promo e.p. release to shorten the wait until the release of the band’s debut full length album. This e.p. contains three songs , two new and one re-recorded version. This is a modern hardcore standing with one leg in the nineties and all those metallic releases a la Biohazard, Madball, old Ryker’s and Brightside. There are not so much fast hardcore punk drumming parts, but there are moshing and mid tempo hardcore song parts just made for stage diving and singing along to gang backing vocals. This is street core in its truest sense of word. Of all three my personal favorite is new version of Less Talk, More Action. I haven’t listened to it before, so it is new for me anyway.
