Mastering The Hammer / Coupe Gorge “Split” on Straight & Alert and Contra Records.

“The Hammer is a 4 piece hardcore band from Gotenbörg, Sweden. Their first 7″ No Escape blew me away the very first time I listened to it, so I put out their new 6 track 7″. Now they are back with 3 new tracks from the “Vermin 7″ sessions”. If you are into The Flex, Right Brigade, Think I Care or 86 Mentality you HAVE TO check them out.

COUPE GORGE is part of the new wave of french bands bringing hardcore/punk/oi music sang in french back, along with Syndrome 81, Rixe and alike. CG goes with some raw Negative Approach influenced tracks ‘en Français’ like the band’s anthem “Coupe Gorge”, “Guerre Civile” and “La Nuit” in the mix with thumping French Oi!/streetpunk jams like “Haine” and “Violence”.”
