Endbringer - Empoison The Harvest

 listen to  Omega by Endbringer

Neocrust is a label I've always found to be such a clumsy stamp to stick on bands. I always favor crust bands with more profound melody or an epic soundscape. so I find it a bit troubling that these both styles, despite being both very distinct, are burdened with this label. enter the German band Endbringer (myspace), bringing a sound that hovers in between these apparent styles of metalpunk. from mid- to downtempo elements as seen by sludgy metalpunk acts, to mid- to uptempo atmospheres not unlike their fellow countrymen Alpinist or some other dark hardcore (I abstain from referring to them as neocrust) bands. this hair-raising act could bring a breath of fresh air to a socially and politically indifferent hardcore scene, with the crustpunk scene's anarcho ethics.

Glasses - The Ills Of Life

listen to Your Pickles Taste Better Than Mine by glasses as a preview to this album

this is absolutely per-fect.
this album is unlike anything I've ever heard before. this song in particular even sounds somewhat unlike any of their other songs. melodic. heartfelt. rock and/or roll as FVCK. This german band (Myspace), with members from Perth Express and Trainwreck, left people in awe since their earliest start and this third release just tops everything off. this band's musicianship started off soaring high and continues to grow exponentially. So if you haven't, yet, you need to catch up with wath they've done so far!
