GWENN




Post-hardcore/screamo band with female vox from Lille, France.




CONCRETE




Concrete is a well-known italian post-core band active since the early 90s. they put out a full lenght cd ("nunc scio tenebris lux", soa rec.), a 10"ep ("patior ergo sum", soa rec.), a 7" ("sescenti sexaginta sex", soa rec.) and a split 7" with antisgammo (biba rec.) they are currently re-recording stuff from their early releases.







BEASTIE BOYS




While touring behind Hello Nasty, the Beasties regularly busted out hardcore songs by the likes of Agnostic Front, Minor Threat, and Reagan Youth--along with their own take on Billy Joel's "Big Shot." The move came as no surprise to anyone familiar with this EP, on which the B-Boys collaborated with AWOL and returned to the hardcore roots documented on Some Old Bullshit. At eight tracks in just over 11 minutes, this hardly qualifies as extended play.








ASININE SOLUTION






Amazing Swedish hardcore punk









ENGINE KID




Seattle's Engine Kid start off mellow, with Windshield, then erupt. Each song starts out with either tripped-out laziness or abstract heaviness, drifts off for at least 4 mins., then explodes in a whirlwind of mesmerizing drum tempoes and off-beat harmonics. The vocals range from spoken, to softly sung, to harsh screaming. The singer/guitarist Greg Anderson can be foung nowadays in Goatsnake. A masterpiece.




A SATELLITE CRASH




Don't know much about this band. This is their side of the split with Neil Perry.






93 MILLION MILES FROM THE SUN


a Swedish group fronted by Dennis Lyxzén from Refused and The (International) Noise Conspiracy and members of Refused and Saidiwas that “vow(ed) to never perform the same song twice.”
