AGRIMONIA - Host Of The Winged 2 x LP

Details: The wait was long, but now it's ready! A dignified follow-up of their first album! An intense DoLP from this dark crust band from Gothenburg. I haven't really enough words to describe this brutal yet twisted attack on my eardrums. Eight songs in just over 72 minutes (!) of death and blackmetal gloom with a healthy dose of crust punk influences leaving me speechless. The Double LP comes in a beautiful gatefold with a foldout insert.

NAPALM DEATH - Hatred Surge/FETO Demos LP

Details: This is the strangest release of Napalm Death. Harsh punk gets mixed with some depressive chords and a sound, which reminds me of the Thorns' demos. Imagine Discharge with some Burzum-like moments ('What Man Can Do'), noisy michrophonies and the angriest ever heard cries - that's what 'Hatred Surge' is all about. There are tracks like 'Instinct Of Survival', 'Control', 'Caught... In A Dream', which will be later reworked and heard in the famous 'Scum' release (the birth of grind core). Here in this demo they still sound very punkish (Crass were one of the most influential bands for the early Civil Defence/Napalm Death). This LP contains the "Hatred Surge" Demo from 1985 and the "From Enslavement To Obliteration" Demo from 1986. 22 sonx in total.

KYLESA – Static Tensions LP

Details: This is really good. Way better than the last record and probably their heaviest to date. I think they still have 2 drummers but they lost their bassist with the crusty vocals; so none of that on this record. They now have the bassist of Born Against. Overall great record, it'll sound better too.
Comes with big booklet.

BASTARDATOR – Identify The Dead LP

Details: Bastardator present this first full-length album, armed with a vocalist that fits the band's music even more than the previous singer did. Identify the Dead, simply put, is a high octane piece of Thrash Metal with some punk influences. It kicks off fast and heavy and never really slows down to give you time to figure out what the hell just happened to you. Insane, unrelenting speed applies to all concerned here – guitar, bass, drums and vocals. The new vocalist simply shines on this. He spits out the words at full speed, keeping up with the often very fast beat, and manages to make his way through that thick wall of music to make himself heard, yet without taking center stage, leaving the music do most of the talking.

I rarely notice the bass much while listening to music. I hear it but I usually focus a lot more on the guitar playing Рexceptions being when listening to bands such as Moțrhead or Iron Maiden, of course. Here however the bass is quite audible and often takes the front row and I found those parts are pretty damn catchy Рthough this can be said of most of the album. I'm always amazed by the fact that there is only one guitarist in this band Рhe shreds like a fucking maniac and the riffs are just fucking amazing, and you can really fuck yourself up just trying to air guitar at this РI shit you not. I don't know how many times I found myself listening to some of the guitars parts over and over Рgood thing this isn't a tape. (Metal Crypt)

CRO-MAGS - The Age Of Quarrel LP

Details: Cro-Mags are a hardcore punk turned crossover thrash band from New York City. The band, which had a strong cult following, released many records, their first two considered the most influential. They were among the first bands to fuse hardcore punk with thrash metal and were associated with the birth of a tougher attitude within the hardcore scene in the late 1980s.
They first released a demo with songs that would eventually find themselves on their debut album The Age Of Quarrel (1986). Wiki

TOZIBABE s/t EP

Details: Gloomy female HC of the metal-free sort – TOZIBABE were one Yugoslavia’s best bands in my books. Their songs on the essential “Hardcore Ljubljana” comp LP (released in 1985; recently re-released) were amazing and admitedly better than the four songs on this last sign of life by them. Still, it’s a smasher of a platter and a scarce find. Let’s hope they did get through the bloody civil wars and without turning onto nationalism (like so many of their contemporaries did).
The cheesy synthie-bells intro is so great, and overall, the vocals fit in very well (which isn’t always the case with female vocals in HC). Listen for yourselves.

SKITSYSTEM - Allt E Skit LP

Details: Here's the vinyl version of this collection of Skitsystem's early and out of print material from 1995 - 1998, making for 19 tracks from one of m favorite Swedish hardcore bands out there. Included is the "Profithysteri" 7", the split 7" with Wolfpack, and the "Ondskans Ansikte" 10" (the finest material herein and a definite hint at where the band would end up). This material is often billed as being the band's rawer work, which is definitely true to a degree, but I honestly don't find it to be all that much different in sound quality from some f the material they've dropped since this time period, so it all stands up well. Expect around 35 minutes of brutal crust punk with thick chord progressions, driving tempos, and of course Tomas Lindberg's immediately recognizable vocal screams. Aside from the vocals there's maybe not so much about this band that's truly different from the rest of the genre from a songwriting standpoint, except that I feel that their sound is always a little heavier and more in your face than most of these bands, which does give them their own sort of style. And of course when you combine that with a knack for writing consistently good songs, plus those vocals, they're definitely among the more unique sounding bands in the end. The three releases contained herein are all very consistent with one another stylistically, without a great deal of variety or variation from a pretty set range of tempos and playing styles. Now and then they'll throw out a quick lead break or a slightly slower rhythm that gets a touch heavier, but it's definitely got a clear direction throughout. However, "Krossa Mig" is much slower and more sinister, with a crushing chord progression and hard-hitting percussion underneath some feedback and brief melodic notes - certainly one of the band's most notable tracks. Period. The split 7" with Wolfpack does sound much thinner and has a vocal performance that's a bit more direct, leaning towards aggressive yelling rather than the textured screams of most of the band's other work (ironic as that's the "newest" material on this LP), but their debut EP from 1995 sounds great, and the 10" from 1996 sounds solid as well (with a little more of a rugged bite). Oddly enough their debut has the most consistent and fluid mix of these tracks, but it all works fine. The LP's sleeve is plain black with metallic silver text for the logo and tracklist, so it's not much to look at. However, the insert has been handled very well, including all of the lyrics, a complete discography with all of the original record covers, a brief history of the band, etc. The lyrics are mostly in Swedish, but English translations have been provided (with Swedish translations offered for the handful of songs that are actually sung in English). Of course the content deals with the usual topics of war, violence, consumerism, etc., but I'd definitely rank these lyrics as falling on the harsher and more pessimistic side of things. "A human wreck, Life's work in shatters, Continuous hate for life, Restrained to obedience, Driven to madness, Treated like dirt..." Good stuff. It's always good to see material like this staying available to the listeners in various forms, so if you missed the original pressings of these releases and prefer vinyl to CD's, this collection's for you.
