(review) CRO-MAGS-Don´t Give In(Victory Records)

Leave a comment

Wow! This is really a surprise! After all the painful years of battling through court and who is real, who is not, Harley Flanagan finally did it! Cro-Mags, one and only real Cro-Mags released the first new music since 2000. and signed deal with Victory Records.

605260

The line-up is made Flanagan on lead vocals/bass, guitarists Gabby Abularach, Rocky George (Suicidal Tendencies, Fishbone), and drummer Garry “G-Man” Sullivan and the musicianship is very tight and the music is aggressive, energetic and memorable.

There are three songs on this record: the title track, Drag You Under and No One´s Victim. Harley sings better than ever and production is a bit gritty, but that sounds darker and more sinister when listening. In my opinion the title track is the best one on this record and kind of reminds me on We Gotta Know with the guitar riffs and drumming at the beginning of the song. Welcome back, Cro-Mags!

8,5/10

(record review) THE TAKE-The Take (Demons Run Amok)

Leave a comment

The Take are new band consisting of NYHC legends and we can be safe to call them supergroup. This is their debut album and I listened and reviewed it for our zine. The album comes out with Demons Run Amok.

Will Shepler used to be drummer for Agnostic Front and Madball. He and Craig Setari (bass played in Sick Of It All, ex AF and others) decided to return streetpunk and oi vibe with old school into music, so Will recruited Scott Roberts(ex Biohazard, Cro-Mags, Bloodclot!…) for the band. Since Craig was busy with Sick Of It All, bass player became Carlos Congote(Royal Hounds, ex Urban Noise, 45 Adapters).

The result is this debut album full of streetpunk/oi hardcore anthems. Vocally, Scott sounds harsh, but also melodic and I love how his voice is sounding and how great it completes the music song structures. At the moments The Take´s music reminds me a bit of legendary Bruisers but with more hardcore attitude and songwriting. There are hymns sure to become streetpunk classics like Elitist, The Skins Are Out Tonight, King Of The World, but also faster more aggressive hardcore stuff like Revolution Now or Dead To Me. This is an awesome album for all of you who love your NYHC done old school style with streetpunk/oi attitude done with brains and balls.

9/10
