Fauna / Sequera split cassette
A ten-song split from two bands from North Catalonia who are both new to me. The SEQUERA songs have a Western pop punk influence that really threw me off. It sounds like it could have been on Epitaph in the ’90s. I’ve heard this before, and I never want to hear it again. The FAUNA songs are much more interesting. The recordings are less polished, and they’ve got a decent energy. They’ve got an edgy post-punk thing going on that reminds me of BLITZ or SYNDROME 81. This would have been better if it were ten songs from FAUNA.
