(record review)INCISIONS-Incisions(TNSrecords)

Manchester UK seems to be great city for diy punk bands, this time I listened and reviewed the new Incisions record out on TNSrecords.

Layout 1

Formed in 2015., these guys have been playing their version of angry, but melodic American inspired hardcore punk. This record is proof how such band should sound like. There are 12 songs in circa 19 minutes on this record. Lyrics are shouted and sometimes melodic sung and it sounds awesome. The lyrics are about right winged tide threat rising in Europe and the world right now, liquor, life, friendship, politics and in fact the lyrics are smart mixture of personal, humour and political. For me favorite tracks on this album are War In Your Head, I Wanna Die With You and Corrupted System.

If you are into your hardcore punk sounding harsh, yet with melody, and having street smart mojo in the songs, then Incisions record is the right one for you.

8/10

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.

Covering global issues like the far-right uprising and deceitful politics the world over, through to more personal subjects like addiction problems and heartbreak, the band felt the record was a true reflection of what they are about. 12 songs in 19 minutes is the result of short sharp bursts of furious yet melodic hardcore from one of the most exciting bands in the country right now.

Incisions are a local band that won’t be local for long. This album is looking like its really going to shake things up a bit. #bedroomrevolution #incisions

The album is available on vinyl (white with black splatter), CD and digital download.
