After a tranche of EPs, these gothic punkers have released a cracker of a debut 12”. An unmistakable punk sneer and snarl pulsates throughout the vocals, barely contained by a sleek deathrock shimmer. However, it’s a genre-defying beast—there are beautiful post-punk elements with at least one tune sounding like a CHAMELEONS off cut, and a swaggering mid-tempo glammy stomper which wouldn’t be out of place as a SLADE B-side. Worth the wait.
And they are back! PURA MANIA’s ability to transcend geographical boundaries and unite members from two different countries is a testament to their dedication and passion for their music. The fact that they are able to seamlessly continue their energetic punk sound despite the distance between them is a true testament to their talent and commitment to their craft. Featuring members of FRACASO and SPECTRES, they are somewhere between Oi! and Spanish punk. Fans of their previous release Cerebros Punk can expect more of the same high-energy, anthemic tracks from this exciting band. SCREAMERS cover included!
