Metachrist - Final Bloody Master (tape)

Raw and primitive guitar sound, old school feeling, insane guitar solos coming from the '80s death metal era, three chord riffs and D-beat for the fast parts, metal edged guitar works for the slower and emotional and echo-ed shouted vocals. This is Metachrist from Canada who revive the '80's UK crust in their Final Bloody Master 5 track cassette. Many classic '80's and early '90's crust (and D-beat crust as well) bands are mentioned as their influences and the band managed to deliver an alloy that reeks  crust stench. Final Bloody Master delivers 2 fast and 3 mid-paced emotional tracks and 17 minutes of old school stenchcore crust. This is filthy, sick and raw the way should be and comes in home dubbed onto blank factory tapes with photocopied j-card. Cassettes are available from the band, available also in bandcamp

Conquest - FOAD tape

A few weeks i posted the cassette of Conquest an obscure D-beat band from Montreal, Canada, There's n't anything on the web about the band, or the demo, just a Youtube video and some posts in facebook. Now the band releases a second cassette titled FOAD, it delivers 4 tracks and nearly 6 mintes of D-beat and its even better than their first cassette. The recording seems to come from different session to first cassette, it has better sound quality and delivers the goods better. This is amazing pure D-beat, i don't need to say anything ,enoy the D-beat!

Nuclear Power Genocide-Devastation of the Future 7"

Nuclear Power Genocide is a new band formed by members of Paranoid and Absolut. Both bands need no introduction since they are/were around long time ago and offered us some great raw tunes. Back in 2015 they released Jawbreaking Mangel Devastation split (2x7" and 12") and toured together in 2016, now they join forces, two members of the now defunct Absolut (Chris on vocal duties and Joel on guitar) and two from Paranoid (Jocke on bass and Emil on drums) formed Nuclear Power Genocide and recorded four tracks for an upcoming 7" titled Devastation of the Future. The recording took much time (between July 2017 & April 2018), mixed by Nayr Tunndra & Joel from Absolut, mastered by Kenko at Communichaos Media Clay Station and sleeve artwork was created by Jacky Crustwar. Wow!
The record will come out in March on D takt & Råpunk in Europe and self-released in North America. As a first taste of the upcoming storm, two songs are available for streaming in bandcamp and yes its a little monster of kängpunk, this is exactly what these bands could produce together, a raw punk attack at its finest, brutal, fast and relentless and crashing everything that stands on its way. The tracks remind very slightly of Absolut since vocals and guitar come from them.
Bass and drums recorded by Jocke D-Takt at Studio Mangel  guitars and vocals recorded by Nayr Tunndra and Joel Militia at Hell’s Highest Studio. for pre-orders there are mail addresses on bandcamp.

Despair-Visions of the Inferno LP

Get ready for some absolut Discharge worship now: Despair were a rather  short lived D-beat band from Vancouver British Columbia, Canada, the band was formed in 2015 by members of  Decontrol, Total War, Dodsfalla, Genogeist, Dead Hunt and Suss-Law and  they released a 9 track demo tape in 100 copies, the demo was sold quickly and its hard to find a copy now, then we had to wait three year until this belter came out:
Visions Of The Inferno is the one and only official release of Despair, it was released in 2018 by Brain Damage in 500 copies, 350 black and 150 blue vinyls, it was mastered by Kenko (No Security, Dischange, Meanwhile etc) at Communichaos Clay Station and comes in old school artwork reminding of the old Discharge releases and the music is exactly the same: The record consists of eight tracks that last eighteen minutes and deliver old school D-beat coming straight from the days of Hear Nothing, See Nothing, Say Nothing and Never Again: Old school guitar sound, followed by muffled bass lines and a singer who tries to sing like Cal. Its obvious the band got into the studio just to bring this old spirit,  they managed to capture the vibe and delivered the goods.
All and all, Despair was a band formed by some guys who got together and wanted to bring something that sounds like the old Discharge records and the result is truly amazing. Visions of the Inferno is still available from several distros around the globe (Profane Existence, Sorry State, Soaps ans Spikes, Puke n Vomit etc etc). There is not any official site of the band, members continue in other bands.

Unfair-Industrial collapse (tape)

D-beat from Kingston, Ontario, Canada: Industrial collapse  is the second release of D-beaters Unfair, right after the Holy Weapon of Peace earlier this year. There is not any information about the band, not any site, fb etc. Both of their releases came out in 2018 as cassettes on Portland based Go! Records. Industrial collapse comes in white tapes, brown covers and consists of six tracks and nearly nine minutes of old school D-beat punk. This sounds like a  blending of Discharge and Doom and could have been recorded back in early-mid '80's. Good shit! Cassette is available from Go! Records, also available for streaming in bandcamp

Decade-Demo (tape)

Decade come from Toronto, Canada, they are one of the bands that were born after the demise of Absolut (and Crotchmutt), the other new band is Last Agony, this demo is their first recorded material and was released on tape by Runstate Tapes. The cassette consists of six tracks and nearly eleven minutes of distorted and chaotic D-beat raw punk: The chaos begins after a one minute intro of indtrustrial sounds as the band kicks in with guitar and bass distortion to the maximum level, the usual D-beat drum attack and incomprehensible vocals drown in reverb and echo as much as can get. Everything stands well in the mix and completes a solid and raw sound of ear tormenting punk attack. The cassette is still availabe from Runstate Tapes (and probably elsewhere). And for vinyl lovers, Rawmantic Disasters will release it on seven iches.

Caustix-Total Noise War tape 2015

Now this is really good piece of D-beat: Caustix hail from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, they deliver D-beat raw punk,  i searched the web but i didnd't find any info about them, just some gigs they played in. Total Noise War is their debut release which came out in 2015 in 50 copies. Cassette's running time i short, the noise attack has complete the ear mayhem after 6:20", the first song is a little slower as a kind of intro to the upcoming sonic inferno. The rest  three tracks are a hell of noise.and deliver the goods. There's nothing to complain here, the distorted guitar sound, the echo-ed vocals, the bass lines and pummeling D-beat drumming, all create an aggressive and solid piece of raw punk. This stands equal to some well known names. Total Noise War came out in 50 copies on randomly coloured cassettes and is available in bandcamp

Disaxis-Life ep

Disaxis is one of the few bands who have myspace page during 2016, instead farcebook or ReverbNation or blog or whatever. Oh come one man! get rid off this impractical crappy shit! (ok ok there is a tumbrl page, here) The band is one man project from St Thomas, Ontario, Canada and this is the debute recording, released in autumn of 2015. Life consists of seven tracks of D-beat with sick black metal-ish vocals and the simplicity of music reminiscent of greek D-beaters Doomed Again with the addition of a few crust parts in guitar riffs here and there. The prons of Life are the guitar riffs, the decent sound and some nice lyrics, the cons are the lack of variety in singing and drum beat since all songs walk in simillar pace but what the hell, repetitiveness is the main accusation against such bands so just ignore the cons.. Anyway this is good effort and hope to hear more from that guy, Life is available in bandcmp along with the lyrics.
