(record review)THE DAWN-TWWKIG

The Dawn is a hardcore band from Marseille, France and I am happy I was able to listen and review their record for this zine.

The album contains 9 songs of chaotic mayhem. The Dawn play aggressive, nervous, noisy hardcore that borders with sludge and doom influences and screaming harsh vocals. But, there are also grindcore blastbeat parts in the song structures and to add it all, weird keyboard melodies in the background, to make this band more interesting. What makes me more happy, is obvious Church of  Satan influence in many songs, especially Walpurgisnacht with Nine Satanic Statements thrown in. The lyrics are as I understood nihilistic and apocalyptic as the music this band plays. This is not for the fans of happy merry go round melodic hardcore. These guys will twist your mind with their music and then laugh about it later! I really love this record, it shows the variety and originality that can still be achieved on hardcore scene besides all those generic clone bands that are coming out with their records every day!

Packed with 30 tracks of B-sides and rarities, you’ll also enjoy two songs that were previously unreleased on digital.

(news-punk)TNSrecords: Incisions join the family and release new single ‘War In Your Head’

TNSrecords are very excited to welcome Incisions to the family. To celebrate they have released a video for the brand new single ‘War In Your Head’.

Manchester is the home of UK DIY punk. If someone tells you otherwise, they’re wrong. Manchester birthed Incisions in 2015 and they’ve been honing the sound since. This is what being young, working class punk in the North of England sounds like. They’ve combined love, lust, liquor and rage, dragging 80s American hardcore through the streets of Manchester.

The anger and desperation at the youth being abandoned by the system is tackled in the first single from their self titled album. Discussing ‘War In Your Head’ guitarist and vocalist Jordan said…

We don’t exclusively hate the tories (but we do  hate ‘em). ‘War In Your Head’ takes a swipe at all the f*ckers that inflict suffering on those they are supposed to stand for. It talks about the consequences of their, completely disconnected from the real world, decision making. There is no glory in fighting other peoples wars for them, and you won’t get any gratitude for it either. They’ll kill us all!

As someone who has spent the last decade much like everyone else hating being lied too under a Tory regime, this song is the anthemic fist raiser we’ve needed! This is a local band that won’t be local for long. This album is looking like its really going to shake things up a bit.

The single is released ahead of the bands debut self titled album which will be released on vinyl and CD by TNSrecords in November.

Jordan – gtr, vox
Archie – bass, vox
Steab – gtr, vox
Andy – drums
