Soji / Urban Waste DCxPC Live Presents, Vol. 38 split LP
Killer split LP featuring Queens legends URBAN WASTE and Philadelphia’s SOJI. The URBAN WASTE songs are exactly what you’d expect; technical, fast, and brutal NYHC. There’s something to be said for a band 40 years into their career and still laying it down like this, respect! The SOJI side keeps the energy and takes things in an entirely different direction. It’s hardcore that pairs chugging metal riffs against these groovy and melodic passages. It’s not my thing, but the execution is excellent and it’s fucking cool to see bands taking things into their own hands and doing it their way. Lyrically, it’s confrontational and subversive. They are speaking about the shit that needs to be talked about and I love to hear it. Oh yeah, this is only available on LP through the label and limited to 200 hand-numbered copies, you can’t stream it! Community over corporations, motherfuckers!
