Overbite

Mastering Overbite “s/t” 7″ on Reagent Records.

Released August 8, 2016

“Massive. Ferociously disciplined playing leads way to hypnotic primitivism. A barrage of noise and feedback, but not without hooks. This is despondent frustrated hardcore, the sound of Irish ghost estates, and while the middle of this record is quite a fast affair, opener “Awake”, and closer “Blown Out” are a gloomier almost post-punk pair. While I’m at it, the recording is INSANE. Check out the bass sound on “Blown Out”‘s intro. Couldn’t recommend this enough. Ireland’s best. Fans of bands like Raw Nerve or The Lowest Form wouldn’t go amiss.” (Andy McSharry)

Nadsat s:t

Mastering Nadsat “Nadsat” on Andalucia Über Alles.

Released July 7, 2016

“Por fin, tras una larga espera, podemos escuchar la primera grabación de NADSAT, otro grupo más compuesto íntegramente por miembros de esta organización; un melocotonaso cósmico en toda regla que no hubiera sido posible sin la paciencia y trabajo de Manu Holländer, el único punk de verdad de esta ciudad, y la genial masterización llevada a cabo en North London Bomb Factory. En esta ocasión, el punk trianero y jerezano se han aliado para engendrar una criatura de lo más variopinta que, como todo lo bueno, se ha hecho de rogar hasta la desesperación. Pero ya lo tenemos aquí, y nosotrxs estamos muy felices de compartilo con todxs vosotrxs.
Pronto estos sonidos invadirán la realidad tangible a través de una edición en cassette de la mano de Andalucía Über Alles, que pondrá todo su cariño en elaborar un artefacto digno de ocupar un espacio en vuestra colección musical, así que, si queréis contribuir a que este proyecto no deje de crecer, id apartando los jayeres para apoyar a este grupo de nihilistas.
Escúchalo, baila, léete las letras, compártelo o métele fuego a tu computadora si te parece una mierda, da igual, Nadsat ya está aquí con un mensaje indestructible: PUNK, DIY y FUERZA JUVENIL.”

Released January 1, 2017

“GIRL POWER are a total powerhouse hardcore trio. Anyone that heard their debut 7″ or has seen them live knows this! Dare I say it, ‘Welcome to the Gun Show’ is even better than that first 7″!

7 tracks of pounding slow followed by lightning fast, coupled with intelligent lyrics and catchy riffs is what you’re getting here. This does not disappoint from the first note to the last.

One of the best kept secrets in UKHC right now. “

Life Survival

Mastering Life / Survival “Split E.P.” by Static Age Musik

Released February 14, 2017

“Two bands that have refined their respective sounds from noisey punk and metallic grindcore into genre expanding contributions to DIY punk rock. Instinct of Survival (Hamburg, Germany) continue to flavor their stench core influenced punk with a industrial melodic sensibility reminiscent of early Killing Joke. LIFE (Tokyo, Japan) again prove they are the best thing going in crasher crust style punk with three tracks that deliver all the pounding, reverb drenched bombardment you need from the genre while finding room for some amazing melodies and guitar work. Essential material from both bands. Artwork by the Human Warhead Yeap. Tape Version by Hardcore Hell. 7″ version by Desolate Records & Static Age Musick.”

Girlie : Pigeon - Split

Mastering Girlie / Pigeon “Split” on Späti Palace and Flennen.

Released September 23, 2016

Taken from Lola:

“We’ve talked about Girlie’s throwback charms in previous gig guides; the likes of Interrugnum bounding along with unreserved indie flavour. Honest lyrics, dirty guitars and garagey production define Girlie’s presence on this record. Pigeon by contrast have an altogether darker sound, influenced somewhat by squalling vocals and swelling guitars with enough grit to de-ice your footpath. This split EP strikes a perfect balance between both bands: the fresh, open Girlie running into the brooding, blown-out Pigeon.”
