| DISREANTIYOUTHHELLCHRISTBASTARDASSMANX / SLOTH Split 7" Review by: Jeb I merely typed the name of the first band on this split and it gave me carpal tunnel syndrome... DISREANTIYOUTHHELLCHRISTBASTARDASSMANX get their name by combining pieces of words from well established extreme hardcore bands like DISRUPT, CRIPPLE BASTARDS, MONSTER X, ASSUCK, M.I.T.B. and others. I guess it is a mildly amusing way to get a moniker... although the band members using it as their last name in the classic punk tradition is funnier (and yes, it was funny on purpose). Musically they play a primitive brand of extreme thrash that owes everything to their many influences and manages very little that is original, although the lyrics are excellent. Not a bad attempt but with a shelf full of generic thrash records I can't see myself reaching for this one very often. I bet the very first practice demos from CAPITALIST CASUALTIES sounded a lot like this... I also bet the best DISREANTIYOUTHHELLCHRISTBASTARDASSMANX has to offer is ahead of them, not behind them. SLOTH, not surprisingly (judging by their name), go to the other extreme in speed and play an effect laden sludge. Not super heavy or original but not a bad listen if for no other fact than fewer bands are plying their trade in slowcore than fastcore. When all is said this record is for the "gotta-have-it-all" in extreme hardcore record buyer. (Thrash Bot Records 1144 A East 2nd, Escondido, CA 92025) |
