| ADORNO / SUGARTOWN CABARET |
 |
Split 12"
(Communication Is Not Words, Emergence, La Agonia De Vivir) | LP | Adorno play a great melodic style of emotionally drive hardcore that reminds me of a modern sounding version of 1000 Travels of Jawarhalal mixed with Rites of Spring.
Sugartown Cabaret play a style of emotionally driven posthardcore that goes well with Adorno's style of music. Great release! Definitely worth picking up. | 9 € |

 |
Vinyl Collected
(Adagio80) | LP | The LP contains the out of print stuff from the split LP w/ Sed Non Satiata, the split 7" w/ Ampere and the 2 songs that were on the US tour 7".
For me its still some of their best tunes to date of emotive french hardcore. Daitro is easily one the best bands today in that genre. They see their band also as an instrument to deliver political statements and thoughts ... maybe it sounds pathetic - but its More Then Just Music. I love them and if you haven't heard of them yet - go and check them out!
The records comes in a beautiful artwork done by Julien, printed innersleeve and every LP incl. a download coupon for videos from a show in Japan and another video of the song Laisser Vivre Les Squelettes that Kad from SNS cut from various live videos from the SNS/Daitro tour in 2006. [Listen] | 8 € |
 |
Y
(PurePainSugar) | LP | The latest album by Daitro from France, Lyon . A totally perfect blend of Post Rock, Hardcore and Rock'n Roll where it prooves that there are still some bands that hold the very core of Punk Rock that French Emo has really held back in the days are still alive. Bands like these guys, Sed Non Satiata and even the more atmospheric, kind of post-metal-ish Aussitot Mort (all from France) are really pushing the screamo sound to new territories. [Listen] | 8 € |

A beautiful 10", released once again in Boom Boom and Katatak co-production. The first 10" for Boom Boom. Jokari is a Saint-Etienne born four-piece ; the drummer has changed since the album only to bring an evolution in the sound, not in the style.
Déformation is a 10" LP only released in vinyl. The sound is incisive... and we love it. The best thing to do now is to is to make your own opinion... Jump in!! [Listen] | 7 € |

| KELVIN / SPEEDY PEONES |

split 10"
(MacinaDischi) | 10" | Both bands are from Padova. SPEEDY PEONES deliver 3 tracks as well, nice New-Wave-Pop songs, spiced up with lots of weird little effects and breaks. Their main influences seem to be ROXY MUSIC and DEVO. KELVIN is a guitar-drums-duo, citing amongst their influences like MELVINS, KARP, UNWOUND and JESUS LIZARD, as well KURT and TEN VOLT SHOCK... Now that's nice! One of their 3 tracks is a rowdy and noise-soaked version of the MELVINS' "If I Had An Exorcism". And additionally both bands combined deliver a cool version of the MEN'S RECOVERY PROJECT song "My Body Is A Jerk"!

s/t
(Boom Boom Rikordz, Katatak) | LP | New album by Marseille trio Ntwin is finally available... also in vinyl!! Once again the cover art was beautifully designed by P.guy and serigraphed at Denier Cri in Marseille.
The 10 tracks by the Marseille team stick to the same recipe as they would on the 12" split with Jubilé, because they produced during the same recording session. The sound is however notably different, benefiting from a finely crafted mix and a powerful mastering. Tension, madness and dissonance are to be expected here... This record symbolises the end of an era marked by the departure of bass player Régis, but most of all, it is the beginning of something new... [Listen] | 10 € |

Before and After Dinner
(RobotRadio) | LP | This really is a most remarkable record. Entirely instrumental albums are not generally felt to be as listenable as those with vocals, as the warmth of a human voice is felt to be required in order to connect fully with the audience. Yet in the capricious grooves of “Before And After Dinner” there is a wealth of warm, fun, enjoyable rock. It’s very difficult to describe adequately as I can hear a bunch of influences in here, but start with the 60’s psychedelic movement, add in a pinch of Deus, a touch of Hendrix, Beefheart, The Minutemen and even some particularly exuberant disco and you might get a flavour of what’s going on. I challenge anyone who might seek this record out to put it on and resist tapping your foot for even a minute, cause I tried it and it was damn hard. The sound of a band who have mastered the art of jamming way more than 99.9% of modern bands can ever hope to, “Before And After Dinner” is exhilarating, enormous, abstract, mischievous and glorious, often within the same song.

| SOFY MAJOR |
 |
Permission To Engage
(Bigoût, Basement Apes Industries, Odio Sonoro, Atropine, Prototype) | LP | Permission to Engage, with no question mark. Because Sofy Major doesn’t ask for. With their debut album, the band from Clermont-Fd (FRA) authorize themselves to fire at will. Result is they break many walls between extreme musical styles, to resume in fifty minutes what others have been trying for years. But it was the least these three hard workers (and not rockers, unless maybe…) could do for their first full length: no way, after several releases and intensive touring over France and Europe, that the band stops a perpetual evolution guided by a DIY work and life ethic. Far beyond anything they’ve done before, Permission to Engage takes Sofy Major to a new step in the band’s career. Expect no-prisoners-shows and epic assaults on stage. And the charge is just getting started…

With their debut album, the band from Clermont-Fd (FRA) authorize themselves to fire at will. Result is they break many walls between extreme musical styles, to resume in fifty minutes what others have been trying for years. But it was the least these three hard workers (and not rockers, unless maybe…) could do for their first full length: no way, after several releases and intensive touring over France and Europe, that the band stops a perpetual evolution guided by a DIY work and life ethic. Far beyond anything they’ve done before, Permission to Engage takes Sofy Major to a new step in the band’s career. Expect no-prisoners-shows and epic assaults on stage. And the charge is just getting started… [Listen] | 8 € |

 |
Split LP
(Vendetta) | LP | The NOLA sludge monsters THOU continue to crank out high quality releases spitting pure venom. Expect once more a heavy and brutal guitar assault from deep down below accompanied by a sick and frustrated vocalist, setting senseless destruction against everything into music. LEECH, play fast and raw, yet melancholic,despaired black metal in the vein of WEAKLING. Spreaging an atmosphere of hopelessness, haunted by self-hate and nihilism, this might be the perfect soundtrack for suicide. | 10 € |

Anachronous
(Echo Canyon, No Idea) | LP | Angular riffs swerve throughout the mix atop surf-influenced rhythms, with the aggressive trappings of previous efforts remaining apparent but not overbearing. They speak in dialects and metaphors, fluctuating seamlessly amongst obtuse structures, shifting momentums and rolling cascades. If one were to label them as the first surf-emo band, they would not be offended, but would prefer to be thought of simply as a punk band. On this record, they take a page out of books written by Hot Snakes, Obits and Wipers. Vinyl version includes download code. [Listen] | 8 € |

| YEAR OF NO LIGHT |
 |
Ausserwelt
(Musicfearsatan) | LP | Year of no Light spent most of the last 4 years spreading its enthralling psychedelic warfare to a continually growing audience. Alongside they parted ways with their singer and recruited two other thirsty mercenaries. Shiran, of über-doom combo “Monarch!”, brings now his chthonian six strings to an already massive cathedral of noise and ambient drone tones. Mathieu, of deviant-electronics act “Aeroflot”, strengthens ritualistic tribal rhythm patterns.
Out of their cave, they secluded into an old theater to record these 4 tracks catching every possible vibration of the trembling frame of this enlivened a new mansion. All the energy collected at that very moment forms “Ausserwelt”, the sophomore album of Year of no Light. Mystical emanations flow out of these riffs colliding into each other to an in ear-splitting shriek. Cranked amps and molested drums hurl their mourning chant as a choir intoning its final psalms at the dawn of the Last Judgment. Year of no Light follows the path opened by “Nord” towards more somber psychedelics, creating its own blend of black metal, sludge, drone or any other influence marked with the seal of darkness.
Still no caps, no core neither stupid modern nihilism but instead an ambiguous electrical network of acting singularities, now ready to afford the collective metaphysical crash to come.
2xLP. [Listen] | 13 € |
