Croatian melodic hardcore punk veterans DEBELI PRECJEDNIK are back with their brand new full length album. This is by far one of my favorite bands in Croatian scene for more than 25 years now, also one of my all time favorite bands, so I am happy that the long wait is over and the album is out, the wait has been since 2016. There are twelve songs on this beauty some of them I have heard prior to this release on numerous gigs, like total hit single ‘Nema Me’, ‘Warzone’, ‘Misery Loves Company’ and tribute to late Ivan Antolić singer of Pičke Vrište, called ‘Pičke Ne Vrište’, which is also one of my personal favorites on this record. ‘Legica’ is similar and kind of continuation of band’s biggest hit ‘Farmersko srce’ and reminds of that song a lot. Debeli Precjednik continue with their vision of melodic hardcore punk, with some lyrics in Croatian, some in English, having a fine mixture of personal and political lyrics between the lines. Koca’s voice sounds better than ever and the band is tight, this being first full length album with Buda on guitar. But all that wouldn’t matter if there was no great songwriting and fantastic bunch of songs. Production of the album is strong and everything is in place. This is another great album by these legends and I am looking forward hearing some of the songs live again although I have been to this band’s concerts dozens of times. Superb album!
Ovaj cd je zapravo poklon cd koji dolazi uz četrnaesti broj Out Of The Darkness fanzina i sadrži 5 bendova koji čine novo poglavlje srpske underground hardcore punk scene, mladih bendova koji prže odličan hardcore. Tu su NEVEN koji imaju tri pjesme, pomalo metaliziran, ali dovoljno old school ne momente groovy hardcore koji tekstualno podsjeća na Krishna bendove, meni možda i najbolji na ovom izdanju. MAJAK imaju tri stvari metaliziranog, pomalo d-beat hardcorea poprilično mračnog, pogotovo stvar ‘Poplave’, koja jako podsjeća na Integrity u nekim dijelovima, barem mene. NABOD su mi zakon, sviraju bijesan i brzi, onako prljavi hardcore punk na old school način sa tekstovima na srpskom. Ovo je brzo, bijesno i žestoko i njihov dio cd-a sadrži šest pjesama. Tu pozdravljam i lukavo korištenje semplova koje uvijek volim čuti ako su pametno korišteni. CHEMICAL TOMB prže neki metalizirani crossover u 80-ies stilu i malo me podsjetili na Iron Reagan i Municipal Waste sa svoje dvije stvari na ovom izdanju. Solidna pržiona u stilu hardcore plus Slayer i ostale thrash metal legende. Vokalno jako idu u eighties thrash i crossover stil. BEDNICI imaju tri pjesme i vrlo su mi se dopali svojim mračnim, brzim i bučnim hardcoreom, s ponekim mosh dijelom, ali i ljutim melodijama ispod energičnih apokaliptičnih riffova. Odlični bendovi, odličan cd!
