I love Finnish bands, they always provide quality music with a dose of originality, that defiance, only trademark of Finland´s scene and people. This time I listened to and reviewed the new record by The Hayleys.
The Hayleys come from the town called Jyväskylä and play awesome dirty combination of hardcore punk and metal. This record contains 9 tracks of pure Armageddon of Satan worshipping punk and sexy orgiastic hardcore riffs and energy. Catchy melodic hooks, energetic fast drumming and rawness but also melancholy of punk make this record a winner! The production of this record is just perfect being crystal clear but also retaining that dirty and raw cellar vibe. The lyrics are in Finnish, so I don´t understand a word what they´re singing about but judging by the music I can imagine hehe. If I must compare the music of The Hayleys with someone then I would compare it to one of my favourite bands, Impaled Nazarene. This album is great stuff for all of us who love this kind of music. Top songs: “Kuollut turre ei murise” and “Kyykaarme”.
I am ashamed to admit it, but I never heard of PMX prior to this record, so silly me. Where was I to miss such great band? This Scottish skatepunk melodycore band is just awesome. So, all of these songs on this record are new to me, so I can review the record for this zine.
This is in fact a live studio album consisting of older songs and two new tracks. PMX play skatepunk, fast paced and energetic with a lot of hardcore and metal influences. These guys are technically superb on their instruments. PMX´s music is so special that you can at the same time sing along, mosh, pogo and get emotional an hug a sweaty kid standing in the pit next to you. For me the absolute highlights on this album are “Another Day”, “Clown” and “Who Are We To Pray”.
Tu ima zvuka je punkrock band iz Novog Sada koji postoji od 2014.godine i ovo im je nakon nekih promjena u postavi novi e.p.
Ovdje je riječ o odličnom melodičnom punkrocku na kakav smo navikli zadnjih 25 godina slušajući bendove iz Osijeka, Zagreba, Novog Sada, Pule i svih slobodoljubivih punk gradova i mjesta ove naše regije. Na ovom e.p.-u nalazi se 5 pjesama. Nakon brze, kratke i melodične “Šaffle”, prvi hit i ubojica od pjesme je “Ustani deda” i nikako se ne mogu oteti dojmu i sjećanju na starije Novi Sad bendove kada slušam ove pjesme, bendova kao što su Mitesers, Atheist Rap i ostalih iz bogate prošlosti i naslijeđa te scene. Najveći hitovi po mom mišljenju na ovom izdanju su “Filadendroni” i “Svejedno” sa odličnim melodijama, back vokalima i tekstovima koji su prva liga i jako, ali jako bih volio vidjeti i slušati ovaj bend uživo, jer su odlični.
