Deformed Sacrifice!! EP
Three post-punk tunes from this English band, all of which are fairly driving. I like “Ritual,” the best as it delivers the most oomph. For those into “death.”

Three post-punk tunes from this English band, all of which are fairly driving. I like “Ritual,” the best as it delivers the most oomph. For those into “death.”
Denmark’s LE CRAP wanders through bewildering territory, indeed. While the guitar sound is hard and driving, the songs on this EP work with experimental song structures and off-beat percussion, with some unpleasant results. Not unlike France’s HUMAN BEINGS.
The really outstanding thing about this album is the remarkably flexible, yet plaintive female vocals which grace the songs. The instrumentals veer into a kind of bassy mid-tempo HC drone as the tunes progress, but with more distinctive material, this band could really excel.
Another Boston Tea Party tape from Denmark. An excellent collection of tasty bands featuring the awesome “Havoc Zest Appeal” by WAR OF DESTRUCTION, who terrorize with their unique stylings. Also present are Denmark’s RAZOR BLADES, ILLEGAL 80, and ACTINGS OF A MAD MAN, the forging thrash of BAYONET from Finland, and MELÖSA HEMORROJDER from Sweden. A nice dose of crafty melodies.
A split EP, on white vinyl no less. ENOLA GAY and WAR OF DESTRUCTION share this effort. E.G. are good, gruff fast punk (two songs), while W.O.D. are DISCHARGE-like on their one entry. The flip features LE CRAP, who are abrasive post-punk. The real surprise, though, is VI, who shred on their two tracks, sort of GISM meets CAPITOL PUNISHMENT. Good release.
Quite a strong trash-oriented tape, with the likes of Germany’s MANIACS, UK’s THE FIEND, and Italy’s MONOPOLIO MENTALE. No let-up or let-down.
