Genre/s: Emo, Post Punk, Alternative, Garage Rockįor Fans Of: Touche Amore, Piano Becomes The Teeth, The Smith Street Band, Shellac, The Jesus Lizard "I Could Hear the Earth Turn/The Ground Would Shift and Shake/Oh How I Spent My Days/Happy to Be Anything" Nothing like taking D.I.Y to a new extreme. Fun fact 3: The cover of the LP is just a blank black sleeve with a poorly printed cut out artwork glued on top. If you are looking for something with a bit more structure and showmanship then just keep on walking but if you seek for onslaught after onslaught of devastating and manic hardcore then The Floor Above may very well be your new favorite band. This is truly a nihilistic and fucking awesome listening experience. You'd think that from the screeching groans of an disharmonious choir of guitars leveled by the turbulent and furious rhythm with a lonely and disturbed soul howling through the carnage like that of the insane locked up in an empty but endless padded cell in a psychiatric hospital where the mind cracks and unravels madness beyond repair, all delivered in a muddled and harsh but still reasonably audible production that this could be mistaken for an obscure and old japanese hardcore band but fun fact #2: This guy resides in Nashville, Texas and it was released late last year. So I guess I could say this guy is the Burzum of hardcore and finish this review but it would also undermine this record because when it comes to noisy hardcore this could very well be one of the most bleakest, abrasive and brutal hardcore LPs to come out in a while. Needless to say I grabbed it (in exchange for cash money, believe it or not) and now I'm here to tell you about it.įirst a fun fact: The Floor Above is an one man project. Barely got to finish my sentence before he grabbed a copy of Bishop and whacked it on the record player. I usually make an effort to visit the store when I'm in the area since I live about an hour away and along with picking up the Soma Coma demo tape and Night Birds' The Other Side Of Darkness LP I asked him to recommend me some chaotic and noisy hardcore. This album was recommended to me by a bloke named Nic Warnock who works at Repressed Records in Newtown, Sydney and is of course more well known for running the RIP Society label who is home to bands like Royal Headache, Bed Wetting Bad Boys, Constant Mongrel and Red Red Krovvy to name a few. Arrakis Was Created To Train The Faithfulįor Fans Of: Lotus Fucker, White Wards, Crazy Spirit, SQRM, Dawn Of Humans If you fancy yourself as a sci-fi nerd, and Rush just isn't doing it for you anymore, check these dudes out - heck, you'll probably like em even if you don't know what a Wookie is.ģ. I appreciate music that doesn't hold back, and Kashyyyk are doing just that - straightforward, brutal music with no messing about with silly samples or boring instrumentals. The four piece band blend sludge, hardcore, crust and grindcore into a caustic formula of guttural vocals and vicious breakdowns that goes straight for the jugular. Kashyyyk pretty much had me from the get go - a band named after the Wookie homeworld, playing heavy, gnarly music with liberal 'Dune' references - what's not to like? After listening to their EP, Purpose Escapes not only can I can confirm that the band live up to their expectations - but absolutely pummel it into tiny little bits. Follow The Trails Of Tape Into The Forestįor Fans Of: Dead In The Dirt, Torch Runner, His Hero Is Gone, Bone Dance Human to me sounds like the aural equivalent of a panic attack - it's claustrophobic, cathartic and it'll leave you breathless - and honestly I couldn't ask for more out of a grind/screamo release.Ħ. Thematically the band tackle issues such as mental illness, feminism and anti-racism, and while these topics have been tackled in this kind of music before, Diploid's emotionally charged music just adds a whole new depth and sincerity to these issues. #Royal hunt far away ep rar how to#Utilizing high pitched screams coupled with dissonant chords and blast beats - with some surprising melodic passages (see the intro to 'On Going' - it almost sounds like an At The Drive In track), Diploid know how to balance their influences while proving they have the chops to play original and refreshing grindcore.
