Pazahora is from Singapore and play melodic driven crust, rock out and have this similar sound with bands like tragedy, or from ashes rises. The songs structure getting better and better, with more anthemic slogan, adding it out with more intensity inside.. While crux deliver another 5 songs that have this strong stench feeling inside. Imagine bands like amebix, sacrilege or newer one sanctum, you will get the answer. Sometimes they are fast and throw some mid pace crust but to describe them perfectly, the music is heavy.

Departures / Atlantic Hearts (Split) - P300.00 | $6.00

Fist In The Air is putting out some quality releases by excellent up-and-coming UK bands right now (see Take Courage, Santa Karla etc.), and this split adds to that run, delivering four songs each by two new(ish) bands – one, Atlantic Hearts, hailing from London, and the other, Departures, coming from North of the border. It’s the latter band who get this split underway, with a sound that’s loaded with anger but also a fair degree of tunefulness and expansiveness, with ‘Disappointment’ and ‘The View From Above’ displaying a particular melodic edge and offering driving riffs rather than thrashing brute force. Not unlike The Legacy or Verse, it’s intelligent, powerful stuff. Atlantic Hearts are equally powerful, albeit in a far blunter, rip-yer-face-off-and-stamp-on-it kind of way. Their half of the split is characterized by hate-filled lyrics delivering in a super-vitriolic style, while musically they’re not a million miles away from early Your Demise or Outbreak. Hurtling by in a cacophony of misanthropic anger, their four tracks are short, sharp and impressively straight to the point.

Stretch Arm Strong achieve a balance of punk melodies, hardcore intensity, and the occasional astonishingly metal guitar line. Though the melodicism sometimes break up the flow of the songs, Free At Last keeps up energy the whole way through.

Slayer riffs and a tinge of melodic riffs throughout, these guys and girls know their metal mixed with some hardcore breakdowns. The next 6 tracks are by Polish band JOHN DOE. You can expect blazing blast beats, lots of double bass, all accompanied by tortured screams over some serious metal riffs reminiscent of North Carolina bands Undying & Prayer For Cleansing. Up next are my favorites, LOYAL TO GRAVE from Japan who conjure up 3 more of their Syracuse influenced hardcore. Man I love this band! I can't get enough. The last 5 tracks come from Philippines FAILURE who have a real screamy hardcore punk approach.

V/A 'Too Legit For The Pit' - P150 | $3.00

The conceit behind this album is just too irresistible: A bunch of (mostly obscure) hardcore punk bands take on the giants of (mostly 1990s) hip-hop. The interpretations end up being surprisingly diverse: Candiria's rendition of "Deep Cover" (originally recorded by Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg) is a sludge-funk grind; the Movielife take Public Enemy's "Can't Do Nuttin' for Ya Man" and strip it to the bone, building a new version out of a bass, funky drummer, one-note guitar obbligato, and a very quick sample. E-Town Concrete sounds an awful lot like middle-period Defunkt on its rendition of Nas' "The World Is Yours," while the Hoods bring the death with their shredded interpretation of the LL Cool J hit "Mama Said Knock You Out." But the class of this album, hands down, is Throwdown, which delivers an absolutely hilarious version of Sir Mix-A-Lot's "Baby Got Back," complete with one of those Satan-voice guys roaring "baby got back" and "shake it shake it shake it." This is the best novelty album in years.

Vinyl :

7"

Alarme 'Walk Together, Thrash Together' - P250.00 | $5.00

Any Last Words (Self-titled) - P200.00 | $4.00

St. Paul Minnesota the other half of the Twin Cities Hardcore scene has a long tradition of raw fast Hardcore from the days of Willful Neglect and Blind Approach. From those same St. Paul streets comes Any Last Words. High energy fast Hardcore which brings to mind recent bands like Lifes Halt and No Justice and the faster late 80's SE bands like early Youth of Today or No For an Answer. Any Last Words have a cult following in the upper midwest but are practically unknown beyond this region. This 7" should open up the eyes of thrash fans world wide to their awesome power. The songs on this 7" are the best from their demo and some new tracks all recorded by Tim Mac and produced with his trademark crunch. (Mac recorded Damage Deposit and Holding On as well) Critical Colin who did double duty in Damage Deposit provides some great artwork on the front and back cover. Lyrically Any Last Words are a sincere and thoughtful band with current political commentary while still being incredibly pissed off at everything. ALW takes on GW Bush and his war, emo, work, fashioncore and society and still finds time to contribute the uproarious song "I wish I could skate". Critical Twin Cities Hardcore!

Damage Deposit 'Do Damage' - P200.00 | $4.00

Features extremely sick artwork by Critical Colin and Bill Hauser.

Go! 'Your Power Means Nothing' - P250.00 | $5.00

Go! - Your Power Means Nothing 7”. In a nutshell, GO! was a New York Hardcore band around from 1989-1991. This is their first and classic single from 1990! GO! was about an awful lot, but they were so fucking sarcastic that it made it all alright. Pro-Gay and Lesbian; Feminist and anti-Sexism; anti-Racism and Violence. Yup. No apologies. And songs about Power and Civilization and Society, etc. Pretty serious stuff. Well yeah, but then we also have "Milk does your body good" and "Mom" and so on and there you have it. Life is balance. If you're into Gorilla Biscuits, MDC, Negative Approach and stuff like that try it out. Great Hardcore from NY with well thought-out lyrics - no neanderthal crap here.

Killed In Action 'Self Abuse' - P250.00 | $5.00

This is the follow up to their full length cd on Six Weeks.

Hit The Lights (Self-titled) - P250.00 | $5.00

The Tangled Lines / Dick Cheney 'Split' - 300.00 | $6.00

THE TANGLED LINES (Dresden, Germany) is a female fronted powerful blasting fast hardcore, having elements of old school hardcore, youth crew and positive hc with fast thrash beats and melodic parts. Stick to their beliefs and DIY ethics, their message contains social/political, antifascist (with the songs like "Hitler is dead") and scene related issues with good dose of humor and fun. Their side contains 4 songs including Gorilla Biscuits coversong. DICK CHENEY (Umea, Sweden) is their debut release on vinyl, contains 6 songs of the early 80's influenced hardcore sound with fast tempos and thrashy sound. If you're into traditional hardcore sound you should not miss them. Umea Hardcore still kicks ass.

10"

I Fail 'Highways...' - 3500.00 | $7.00

Five epic political hardcore songs. Belted lead vocals with nails-on-chalkboard shrieks in the background. Ominous guitar breaks tying the parts together. These songs are on the longer side, and may draw comparisons to Fucked Up, but I find this record a lot more dynamic and engaging than anything I’ve heard by that band. Blackberry yogurt colored vinyl. Props for the before and after photos of the now burned down Touchdown Jesus (Google it).
