Sleeper cell - Lp and 7''

Sleeper cell was a hardcore punk band from boston, they're sound was the total DEATHREAT (what do you mean you don't know deathreat? yeah, the band after his hero is gone disbanded and before tragedy take form, yeah, with common members, yeah) worshipping manifesto. Here you get their discography (that partners in crime records released on a cd format lately).An awesome Lp and two (more) awesome 7'' (all self titled's. hehehe)..My favourite song is "how to buy an iron lung", a party feeling track to flert some beautiful girls (just kidding)...
Killing recording that make the band sounds so fucking pissed-off, also catchy melodies and political lyrics...
Some people also say that the japanese and scandi mix is also very clear but i can't hear them, just DEATHREAT for me...
The band contains Balance of Terror members (i think Milosz was palying for Filth of Mankind and now he is on Morne)...
you can't be wrong, mates...


Dbill's thoughts :
I was familiar with the name Sleeper Cell, but had never come across their music before...
What we have here is speedy hardcore/punk played with bitterness and anxiety. It has a more urgent feeling that most hardcore bands, maybe because of the socio-political lyrics (thats always a plus in my book)...

The core of their music is rocking riffs in 1 1/2 minute songs...Indeed as mike put it, they sound pretty similar to Deathreat, but since there was never a big scene of bands playing this style, that doesn't disturb you at all. Nice production on both the LP and the 7'', not too polished and raw enough to keep a noisefreak/Disclose fan for more than a minute to their tunes.

Worth the buy, I would be interested in learning what these guys are singing about, just from the neat song titles...good stuff!!
