The new record contains 10 songs. The music Deathbreaker play we used to call new school hardcore in the early and mid nineties, meaning metalic hardcore, very heavy and brutal, yet still retaining that hardcore roots and razor sharp edge. I don˙t know why, but some songs really reminded me of Earth Crisis, like awesome Pit Viper and my favorite song on this record, called Alone. There are no filler songs and the record does not get boring in any way possible. If you are into moshing parts, metalized brutal hardcore you will enjoy this one very much. Two songs that I can recommend as being also my highlights on this record are Fear, also Strangers. This is sheer hardcore brutality so enjoy this one in these tough times.
Time for another band from our Croatian scene to grace the pages of this zine. Krešo i Kisele Kiše from Rijeka are back with the new, hm, first half of the album hehe. The new release contains 7 songs. The music is still their recognizable trademark melodic punk mixed with ska core and skatepunk creating awesome melodic anthems just made for singing along live and their shows are fantastic, I have been to couple of them and they never let me down. What immediately comes to my mind on the first listen to the record is, somehow darker overtones in the new songs. I don˙t think they changed, there are still enough songs about drinking, joking and fun, but also about hypocrisy in the scene, selling out, trying to survive in these crazy times etc…There is also a cover of famous cult band Haustor, the band I hate, but KKK version here is fantastic. The lyrics are in Croatian but it doesn`t matter, let the music take you on the higher level. Recommended songs: Dalibor, Režimske kurve, Bože čuvaj Hrvatsku(Odoh Ja u Njemačku).
Mal Aux Yeux are coming from northern France and this is their debut album that came out with Gargouille Asso.
There are 13 songs on this record and they are all but one being sung in French, so I don`t understand what are they about, but I let the music speak for itself. The music is harsh and rhythmic complex hardcore punk, not your straightforward charging, but with smart song structures, complex guitar and drum parts, yet still being enough catchy and melodic to appeal to the fans of more melodic side of things, like my favorite song on this record En pleine rue. Faster, more aggressive parts mix with almost math core precise riffs, and angry shouted vocals, sometimes diving into melody fit just perfectly to the music like in awesome Detruire mon corps. There is an interlude almost in the middle of the record to add to the heaviness and atmosphere of the record. Good one, French hardcore punk scene is one of the best in the world.
