(record review)PIZZATRAMP-Grand Relapse(TNSrecords)

We have already written about the Welsh trio Pizzatramp on the pages of this zine. Now, their second album comes out in April via TNSrecords and I listened and reviewed it for our zine.

Formed in 2014.this band is an epitome of DIY hardcore punk scene, playing superb gigs, delivering killer songs and delighting the hearts, ears and minds of punx, hardcore kids and skaters out there throughout the world. This new album contains 15 songs of ultraenergetic fast thrash skatepunk hardcore with fast drumming, vocals screamed at the top of the lungs, some groovy moshing parts and full speed ahead drive hehe. Lyrically Pizzatramp cover various themes, from fun and humour everyday to more serious topics about faults in everyday society that surrounds us. I love Millions Of Dead Goths, Theres Been A Murder and Stop Being A Racist Cunt as my highlights of the album. This is high energy hardcore, so get it and dance.

(record review)THANX 4 ALL THE SHOES-“Another Ride”(White Russian Records/NoReason Records/Disconnect Disconnect Records)

Three years after their last album, Thanx For All The Shoes recently released their brand new album and the album is a blast.

The album contains 10 new songs of technical well played energetic mixture of melodic hardcore and thrash metal skatepunk.

What strikes first while listening to this band is how tight the musicianship is on this record. The guitar solo in the beginning of “Declaration of War” blew me away and the song is absolutely one of my highlights on the record because I have a feeling that I am listening to some great thrash metal band. “Decade” is one more highlight being the perfect mix of cleanly sung vocal melodies and brutal metal parts. As I see it, the lyrics are pretty political and straightforward, so that is one more point for the band that I like. I absolutely loved “42042” and its excellent harmonies on backing vocals and anthemic chorus. “Postcard from Kobane” is a beautiful and sad political song reminding me a bit of Propagandhi but more melancholic and sad. I listened to it again and again. It is very hard to put one song on this album above other because it is one of the best albums of the year and a shining gem in European hardcore punk crown.
