Ofensa ¿Cual Humanidad? cassette

Genre-bending metal punk from Barcelona, with one foot on the classic UK crust sound and another in the cold buzzsaw death and black metal from Scandinavia. The crusty NIHILIST tone gives the guitars a new dimension of heaviness, and the very politically-minded vocals still make this a very punk-oriented record. OFENSA almost fits the neocrust label, reminding me of bands like AMBULANCE or EKKAIA, but somehow they are something else. A bleak piece of music for bleak times.
