(record review)GLUE EAR!-Pizza Skate(Horn & Hoof Records)

GEP

Manchester and whole of UK punk hardcore scene is pulsating and vibrating with awesome bands, labels, promoters, zines and I love it! I also love discovering excellent new bands like Glue Ear!, trio from Manchester, UK, whose new release on Horn & Hoof Records I listened and reviewed for our zine.

Skate Pizza

I don´t really know how to describe this release, is it double single, or is it mini e.p., who really cares? These guys mix punk, hardcore and ska and there are two songs on this release. Hoax is more of a ska punk song, but also having great melody and hardcore parts. Mr Plastic is straightforward a bit raw punk song with melody and tightness just made for pogoing and jumping around with your mohawk in the air hehe. This is a good band, but I wish there is more material on the record, because there is just too few songs to listen to and I like the band. I wait eagerly for the more material from Glue Ear!

(record review)Drug Apts-Clean Living Under Difficult Circumstances

Leave a comment

Drug Apts are punk band from Sacramento and they play mesmerizing, a bit different prog version of punk with no boundaries between the underground subgenres, I listened and reviewed their new record for our zine.

I must admit that I have never heard of this band prior to this record and when I was a kid about 20 years ago I would puke while listening to this record and throw it somewhere in the garbage bin. Now, things are very different, I learned to appreciate something new added to the mix. These 12 songs are unique because all of them, each song individually sounds different than the next one. The music is basically punk, but there are a lot of noise, rock n roll, psychodelia and even sludge influences in the songs.

The overall feeling that you get while listening to the songs is one of utter blackness, nightmarish feeling that you just can`t get out of the kind of void you have fallen into while playing this record. The singer is singing nice melodies at one moment, only to growl and scream and whisper at the next. This album is definitely not for everyone, but if you are not a strict scene purist give this one a try, maybe you`ll be surprised.
