Kirot Kaasu Pohjaan cassette

Think ’90s dual-vocal anarcho-crust along the lines of Scandi-neighbors OPERATION and PROTESTERA, delivered in the classic raw Finnish tradition. The strongest material on Kaasu Pohjaan is on the second half, maybe because the vocals settle in a bit, or perhaps because I haven’t spent time with aggressive Finn-core in way too long. The riffs are sheer brutality in their simplicity, and the vocals are as overwhelming as they are overpowering—it’s a harsh listen, and that’s exactly how KIROT intended it to be.
