ROT were already featured on the pages of this zine. This Mexican horror punk entity released new e.p. and it is upon us. This is the first full band e.p. and it contains 6 songs, one being intro. Lyrics are in English language and this is a clear step up in quality of songwriting and material. Music of ROT is pure raw and untamed horror punk full of gore, irony, horror and zombies. Songs like Punxombie, Skate Zombies and As We Roam are personal favorites of mine. Guitars are raw, diy and present the energy of punk, vocals are also screamed, shouted but also melodic. Love this one. Go support! Can´t wait for other material.
Dutch punk rock bands No Breakfast Goodbye and Ink Bomb are in no way strangers to the pages of this webzine. They released this split record and I can safely say that this is one of the releases I was eager to listen and just couldn´t wait to come out. Each band offers three songs on this release. No Breakfast Goodbye play high energy melodic punk/skatepunk with such beautiful melodies and choruses I just enjoyed every second of their side. My personal NBG song is The Losers Club of these three presented on this record. Both bands are great, but somehow I like Ink Bomb a bit better, being a bit more raw and a bit more hardcore punk side of things yet retaining enough melody to be fantastic. My personal favorite from their side of the record is Dorothy Enters Technicolor. Nice split release indeed!
Here is the split release by Croatian hardcore punk band .upset and 8082 from Austria. .upset are in no way strangers to the pages of this zine, because Zabok´s finest were already featured here and this time they offer two songs of street punk influenced hardcore with lyrics about friendship, betrayal, disappointment and hope. Thank You is my personal favorite and Fuck You is a bit faster yet also total hardcore anthem. 8082 offer two songs on their side of this e.p. They also play old school hardcore mixed with couple of new school parts in song structures, I can hear a mixture of eighties and nineties influenced hardcore in their songs. Lyrics are about surviving in this world and literally catching breath and also about with Day by Day being my personal favorite besides Catch a Breath. Great release by two great bands.
