(record review)EL ESCAPADO-THE NOT SO FULL-FULL LENGTH EP

Do you remember El Escapado? We already interviewed those guys for this zine when they were heading on their European tour. Now, they have a new record out and I listened to it and reviewed it for this webzine.

The band comes from Nashville area, USA. This record has a funny name and it is just what it says, neither an e.p., nor a full record. The record contains 8 songs and the music is melodic and fast paced hardcore punk not unlike early Nofx but retaining a healthy dose of originality and vibe. There is a great fose of humour in the lyrics from the intro to the outro. That last song if we can call it that was just too long and too boring but I guess the guys wanted it just like that. I love this band and I love this record, it is an awesome piece of melodic hardcore punk. Top songs: Willett in Dresden, Sedition.

(record review) Dry Life-Consumindo Ignorancia

South America has an awesome, vastly undiscovered and big underground hardcore punk scene. Dry Life are coming from Brasil and I listened and reviewed their new record.

cover

The record contains 12 songs and the music these guys play is melodic hardcore. By melodic hardcore I don´t mean here Californian skatepunk style, more of a melodic hardcore with punkrock influences and the songs and melodies made me sad and somber during listening. I know that this should not be the case, but that just happened.  I don´t understand what the guys are singing about, because all the lyrics are in Portuguese language but as I get the titles it is a mix of personal and political lyrics. The vocals are nice, neither shouted nor cheesy, so they fit with the music really, really well. The backing vocals and harmonies are also done like they should be done. For me, the highlights of the album are Sorrisos Perfeitos and Moda.

Nice record, get and listen to this one, the miles should not divide us, because the great music will always connect us!
