Crazy chaotic metallic hardcore with dual female-male vox - but less formulaic than that makes it sound. There's something odd in here, an element of maybe Neurosis in the chord progressions and dynamics, and maybe a bit of DC hardcore (a la Circus Lupus rather than Fugazi) in the guitars here and there.... 7 songs in 16 minutes - you know Hiretsukan are doing something right (especially as four of those minutes are a cover of Metallica's "Creeping Death"). Great shit, anyway. The only part that sucks is that almost every song either starts a couple seconds late or ends a couple seconds early! DJ with care. 1. uneasy, an intro that never quite resolves (in a good way) 2. rad crickety noises and double bass interlude in the middle 3. fuzzy melodic guitar -> angular explosion, w/quiet breakdowns 4. bass + feedback intro -> freakout - rad lurching drumming 5. more straight-ahead, punky w/HC scream vox 6. headnodding 7. the cover - kickass | ||
