This is in fact a split e.p between Norwegian Anti-Lam Front whom we talked about already couple of times on the pages of this zine and Swedish Headless Frank. Both bands deliver two songs on the record. Anti-Lam Front play mighty melodic hardcore punk with lyrics in their langauge and I am surprised how this band manages to give me goosebumps anytime I listen to their music. Whether their mighty live set at this year˙s Punk Rock Holiday or on the records, these guys just rule. I love Litt av en Khan, god damn it, it is on repeat for days. Headless Frank play Swedish school of melodic punk hardcore like it was played in the 90-ies with lyrics in English and I love Hardships, this song touched me with lyrics and melody. Great little e.p.
This is a bit older release, but Zegema Beach Records released it and thankful to that awesome label, here we have it to listen and enjoy great music of Nuvolascura. This California based band plays a mixture of mathcore, screamo, straightforward hardcore punk with post hardcore influences thrown in the song structures here and there. There are 11 songs on this record. The whole structure and atmosphere of the songs is very darkened with a little or no way out from the today situation of despair and sadness. At least that is what I feel while listening to the record. Some calmer, acoustic atmospheric parts of the song only pave the way towards more destruction and total screaming catharsis. If you are a fan of such hardcore music, try this one, you will not regret it!
The Phosphorous Bombs from Sydney are no strangers to the pages of this zine. We already reviewed their record and now is the time for the brand new e.p.
There 7 ferocious no mercy hardcore punk songs on this one. The title song reminds me a bit of old school Sick Of It All days, yet the guys retain the gritty dirtiness in their sound but with enough of melody and energy to last you for days when you remember the aural attack this record provides. The lyrics are in your face, personal yet angry and you can relate to them. This one is a keeper. It is so much more improved than the last record which I also liked very much. Recommended songs: Against You!, 88 Days, Too Much Of Me.
