Sadly every genre is prone to compromise, as of late crust has been home to some posers that would rather play poor on the weekends and only make sacrifices when its convenient for their image. Well Masakari have emerged as another reminder that as long as there are corrupt people in power, there will be people so fed up and pissed that they have to take it out on the world with disgusting music. The Prophet Feeds weaves a ghastly, crush-a-tonic monstrosity fraught with heavy atmosphere, devastating riffs, ghostly leads, d-beat drums and hectic pacing. If you're looking for something to get your blood pumping then this is definitely something to check out._ Repress on Halo of Flies w/ slightly different cover. -

Now open your eyes and what you have is Masakari, a crust punk band from Cleveland, Ohio. The LP comes as a 180 gram pressing, with a A2 poster and a awesome 350 gram heavy gatefold cover!!!

Decomposition, the second full-length by US / UK / German collective Cross Stitched Eyes, follows in the tradition of anarchist punk and demonised death rock (Rudimentary Peni, Amebix and Killing Joke). Embracing the many irrational and visceral shades of this style's darkest corners, the album decidedly rejects traditional copy-and-paste guidelines of musical conformity with a puncturing attitude. The harsher side of Cross Stitched Eyes derives directly from the band's artistic influences and its deconstructed presentation. Decomposition's leadoff track "We Follow" evokes reactions to seemingly unchanging lifestyles with a vitriolic diatribe. Others like "Animated Corpse" and "Earth's Defiant" display a lyrical depth seldom heard these days. At times benign, at others aggressive, Decomposition explores the complicated relationship between dark and light in a repulsive world filled with gloom. 12 new tracks recorded between 2010 and 2011 and mastered by Skott Brown of the Phantom Limbs. Black vinyl, Skuld Releases version. -
One of the longest running and dedicated Polish punk bands finally gets full length release. Raw and raging punk core with great guitar melodies, angry screaming vocals and a bit scandinavian influence. -
This is the second full-length release from COUNTDOWN TO ARMAGEDDON, a 3-piece based in Seattle, WA whose sound originated in apocalyptic crust and progressed into more melodic, post-punk territories over the past eight years of their tenure. Thick layers of reverb and chorus-effected darkwave riffs, sometimes reminiscent of early KILLING JOKE or AMEBIX, weave in and out of the lines between punk, hardcore, and d-beat crust, while retaining a unique identity in each of the eight tracks on the album. Lyrically this album addresses the conflict between the artificial and natural worlds, and the struggle to preserve humanity in an increasingly digitized and bleak dystopian future. Through a reconnection to nature the path toward destruction can be altered, and thereby escaping the psychological constraints of the modern age. Recorded at Buzz or Howl Studios by Stan Wright (Arctic Flowers) in Portland, OR, and mastered by Jack Control (WB2D) at Enormous Door Studios in Austin, TX. -

This, their debut LP, is a furious blend of technical/progressive metal, grind, and hardcore, with just a little bit of melody thrown into the mix to keep things interesting.

TUNGUSKA / THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL, split lp/cd sadness of noise 008 co-released with Trująca Fala, Organized Noise The Bold and the Beautiful started in autumn 2004 with a few members of punk bands from Lublin area (AntiChrist, Silence, G.C.M., Poem After Auschwitz, Unanimous Society's Paradox, AntiCop), cause guys were just pissed off on polish specific lifestyle, political madness, religious frauds and attitudes of scene gestapo/scene merchandise of some dumbs. They had an idea to connect fast and angry punkrock with old style sarcasm in the vein of early '80 hardcore and with political but not always deadly serious lyrics. In total - two guitars, two screamers, one bass and one drums. They call it Gitwa Punk and if you like Siekiera (a polish old punk "legend") you know what they mean - fast and furious crusty powerviolence, aggressive and in your face. On the other side of the split you find Tunguska - Irish/Polish hybride with heavy and dark monumental neocrust mayhem. Totally devastating and powerful wall of sound in the vein of Silence, FAR, The Dagda etc. -

A pair of powerful hardcore punk bands from Sweden team up for a split LP, offering up high energy music that has the classic style down, but done with modern twist that keeps it totally interesting. BAMN starts out with a basic D-beat backdrop, but keep addign unique twists and turns, so that by the end of their album side they sound like a completely different band. BLACK STAR RISING also have that classic d-beat sound down, but veer way off the beaten path with interesting tempo changes and two vocalists who work well together. Most of theof the lyrics and inserts are in English (critical of the system and stupidity in punk) and gives one the impression they're heading towards the same path as DS-13 before them. Good stuff. -

Hailing from Warsaw, and picking up where Post Regiment threw the towel - no personal links apart from being friends, but if you listen to their music you hear the same passion and energy that Post Regiment built their songs on. Powerful, melodic punk with a female singer, but way more aggressive than the beforementioned. Old Armia stuff would be a good reference as well - and if you put the namedropping aside this is aproof of ongoing good tradition of polish HC-punk over the last decades! -
The second album from this band from Slovenia, this first came out on CD and I had heard it was coming out on vinyl so I delayed for around year before I could get my hands on it, well worth the wait gate-fold cover and coloured vinyl, but nevermind that stuff the music itself is fantastic and crustal sound that reminds me a lot of Scotitsh Anarcho/crust bands like Scatha, Sedition and Constant Fear with lyrical subjects dealing with Animal Liberation, Homophobia and other sorts of topics along the same lines. Anaeroba have a great sound that is kinda of 10 years behind the sound of crust today which seems to be all the slowed down epic build ups and this is great as it is playing stuff that we love but it is only played by bands that seem not to exist anymore. Real kinda filthy Crust that seems to take the best parts of the best bands and mash it into their sound. Artwork done by Stiv. Tis great stuff and well worth checking out.
