Mental Distress band - Pas beaucoup d'avenir LP review

They started Mental Distress in 2013 and the goal has always been to write political songs against all types of discriminations, while keeping the fun side of hardcore punk. Quite soon they recorded our first demo tape, started playing everywhere they could. End of 2015 they changed their bassist before recording a 7” split with their friends from Ed Warner, and an EP along the same lines. Mid 2017 is quite an important moment for the band, as their singer comes out as a trans dude, and they have the opportunity to make their first “real” european tour. Then they took a whole year to concentrate ourselves on the writing of their first LP, and to let hormones do their job on their singer’s voice. 

This LP is different than their other records. A fair amount of their texts are now in french, because it’s easier to express their feelings without having to go through the translation stage. Of course the voice changed a lot, making their music less fast but more understandable, though they still love angry music.

Talacactus band Talacactus album review

Talacactus is a hardcore punk band born in José C. Paz, province of Buenos Aires, in the year 2014. They are trying to develop a style of their own, including the punk, rock and roll styles and the fast-paced styles. The intentions are to include new sounds in the fast music that drives them. The aesthetics are permeated by the indigenous entheogens, the changes in the perception that generalize, and the persecution by the Catholic Church of the ancestral and ritual uses of these substances in Latin America.  
From our earliest beginnings they have sought to create a space in their city, for bands of the fastest musical styles, such as hardcore punk, crust, fastcore, powerviolence, crossover thrash, etc. Unfortunately it is an underground move, and due to the damage of the bolicheros there are the extreme genres, it is difficult to achieve a growth. Amidst our other efforts, they have compiled the compilation "No Trouble: 50 Fast Bands from North and West Conurbano." They also organize recitals like the Trinchera Fest, and José C. Blast, where they invite musicians from another area, and betray the exponents of the underground.From the first to the last track, this album you're going to notice a theme with this album: guitar leads. its a dirty, thrashy, hardcore-punk album that's pushing every song for all the adrenaline it's worth. And really that's all the effort this commands. Throw in some lyrics that'll leave you shitting corn, some of the most generic drumming.

Liberosis band EP "Desrealización review

They are a band from Costa Rica, Central America. Destrukto Muzik recently put out 100 tapes of their EP "Desrealización".

They play Powerviolence/ Grindcore with strong influences from bands like: His Hero is Gone, Despised You,Los Crudos, Napalm Death, Desobediencia Civil, Assuck, Infest and Crossed Out.The album is, like the self-titled, a pure jump into grindcore. Start to finish, it’s a punkier approach. Upon my first listens, I was very pleased and knew this was going to be another solid effort. I couldn't help but get over how hard hitting it was. This alone was easily enough for me to dig. Almost immediately I was happy to hear an improvement in the sound of the band. The vocals have took a drastic change in listenability. On previous works the vocals are sometimes unbearable, with the singer wailing to an annoying degree. With this no longer present I find the band in general to be more accessible.Absolutely face melting. The riffs are crushing, the drumming is maniacal, and the vocals are some of the crazies.

 

Check it out.

Ending a Clutter is a music band from Tuzla which has been active since 2016. whose conceptual purpose is to represent emotions and topics that are otherwise silent, all through storytelling and songwriting. The composition is expressed through a mix of genres and styles that at that moment can bring out and present what they want to say with that song. The band wants to create something different and promises not to rush to it until it is, as they say, "something".

Anticitizen live tape //Live In Allentown// review

Anticitizen is anarchopunk band formed in early 2012 in Washington, NJ.Anticitizen - Live in Allentown live tape was released on Saturday May 25th and feature 15 tracks recorded live at a recent show.A band who’s purpose for existence was to annotate and criticize political issues and politicians and promote peace and anarchy, had completely neglected a war being fought by their country on their, at the time, current recording. By their own standards, they had done well with this tape. They point out that the world is full of greed, unhealthy pride, anger, resentment, lust, rape, envy, jealousy, spitefulness, dishonesty & homophobia and that these are just other words for fear. They say we must strive so that all people believe in peace if we are to evolve as a species. Focus on goals other than monetary wealth and embrace the similarities between races rather than worry about the differences. All common sense really but not a situation that many politicians, money men and militarists would benefit from.So Anticitizen are angry and frustrated. Which means they release great music. The lyrics are equally simplistic, yet equally effective. The incredibly harsh and angry way that they are delivered only adds to their raw truth. Anticitizen"s lyrical pursuits are limited to a couple of subjects: namely, war and the system.This simplicity really only adds to Anticitizen’s sound and live atmosphere, however.Put simply, this live tape is the best example of best catchy hoarse noise.Available in 5 different color cassettes here:
