Deathrats - S/T 7" + Give Up

Girl Style by Deathrats

Deathrats (blog) brings poorly/DIY recorded lightning-speed hardcore punk music. that double the awesomeness already! their pissed off powerviolence often focuses about the vocalists very personal frustrations, her feminist opinions like body policing and people's bullshit, hysterically screaming out about them from the top of her lungs. +1. the messy bass and guitar and the drum with that tin-like sound trash and pummel through mosh-parts as well as parts too fast to dance anything but spastically to. but upon listening, dance you will. it's just not optional. they will be playing their last show ever in the middle of January, on some show of which the flyer said something in the trend of "Wimps and posers leave the hall" which seems really obnoxious, but oh well.

Last fm tags as  hardcore punk, hardcore, punk, crust punk, female vocals

The Love And Terror Cult - We Are You On Fire

◻ by The Love And Terror Cult

The Love And Terror Cult (facebook) was a chaotic hardcore band that seem to have taken even more cues from The Jesus Lizard's style of noise rock music, than Daughter's later records. only with a more hardcore approach than either band, without losing any of the structural madness. the female vocals sound like the person behind the mic has long been driven far over the edge of insanity, adding to the psychological tormented atmosphere of this record. it's hard to wrap your head around the chaos of start/stop elements, guitar feedback and haunting ambience of the songs in their entirity, as well as the individual elements, but if you let it slide, sit back and try not to lose your mind, the overall product of their music almost seems harmonic in an entirely different way.

Landverraad - songs from split with Sloth

Forget Shorter Showers by Landverraad

the other side of the split that I recently talked about here, Landverraad (website) is your new favourite band. a radical crustpunk-influenced fast hardcore band with dual female vocals, that sound incredibly pissed of, and lyrics like a punch to the teeth, that question just about anything. a song in my native language, a few in english and one in russian (I wonder what the story behind that is). underneath all that is some of your new favourite fast hardcore tunes you've heard in a damn long time.

click the image above to contact the band about ordering the split. they deserve it and I bet they'd appreciate it.

Siamese Twins - 2011 demo

Siamese Twins (blog) is a shoegazy post-punkish band with dual female vocals, with a bucketload of delay over them, overlayering extremely contorted guitars and a very goth-like bass sound, by way of that typical The Cure sound. this dreamy music is incredibly soothing and unsettling at the same time. alternating between haunting and mellow/oversweet atmospheres, while the drums often stay upbeat. pushing the tempo of the slower voices. eerie and bittersweet, but extremely brilliant for a demo recording.
