(record review)NEGATIVE VIBES-Broken Mind

Leave a comment

Poland has an awesome underground hardcore punk scene, just waiting for you to discover all of the beautiful bands out there. This time, I listened and reviewed the new Negative Vibes record.

These guys are hailing from the Polish capital, namely Warsaw and play their vision of angry and fast hitting hardcore punk. Knowing the political situation in Poland, which is similar unfortunately to our country, there is a lot of reason for punk hardcore bands to be angry and make energetic music full of rage.

This album contains 12 songs, one being cover by old great Polish band Homomilitia. The music reminds me of Resist, early Poison Idea and similar bands. No philosophy, just plain in your face hardcore punk with shouted lyrics, mix of personal and political issues and short but sweet songs. This album made me hungry for more, so I turned it around and listened to all of it once more. And once more afterwards. Great stuff! Best songs in my opinion: When I´m Dead, Like An Ash.

(record review)Lazy Class-Interesting Times

1 Comment

There is a vast and moving underground punk hardcore scene out there just waiting to be discovered and found and maybe just today you will discover your new personal favorite band and stick around their record for long. I know I did after I listened and reviewed for our zine the debut full length by Lazy Class.

This band comes from Warsaw, Poland and after e.p-s, compilation songs etc this is their first full length album. The record contains intro and 13 songs and after listening for couple of times I can only say I am amazed. Lazy Class play streetpunk/oi with a lot of hardcore influences but at the same time enough melody to appeal to all of you who love your punk more on the melodic side of things.

The lyrics are in English and they are awesome, with street smart attitude but at the same time keeping the punk rebel edge through some more personal themes and topics like friendship, love in the broken world, antifascism, hope and their lyrics really got me going and the music of this band gave me more strength to believe in the cause and keep on fighting on the bad day.  All of the songs are real anthems, with speed, melodic hymn choruses, gang backing vocals, it is all there. It is really hard for me to tell which songs I like the most, but I will try, that would be: Songs Of The Anger, The Time Will Come, Made It Out Alive.

This is superb record, check this one out!

The songs were taken from their first LP “Interesting Times”.

After bunch of ep-s, mini lp, split with Max Cady and some compilation songs it’s high time for Lazy Class first full album. “Interesting Times” contains 14 songs that combines melody and energy, modern sound referenced with some classic touch, socio-political lyrics with some more personal stuff. If you liked what Warsaw boys were making before you’ll be content. Now it’s just more and better!
“Interesting Times” will be released on vinyl by Contra Records (Germany) and Oldschool Records (Poland). CD version will be released by their own label TNT Tunes. Release date: 6th December 2018.
May you all live in interesting times!
