Carrying on the traditions of previous Toronto, Canada acts Urban Blight and Bad Choice (of which they share personnel), Violent Future arrive with their first recording - originally a self released cassette - of thuggishly played, classically trained HARDcore. Six stompers of crunch towing the same 4-Skins w/Hodges/YDI/Iron Cross/Chaos UK buffet their previous bands were known for, but with the most ignorant drumming you've yet laid ears on. Recording by some famous indie rock dude. Limited edition of 500 copies.

04. Violent Future

After two sold out 7"s, here's the debut LP of Belgium's Vogue. If you like their previous stuff, you will definitly love this one. The songs on the record are what you can expect from VOGUE but more. Harsher, harder, rawer, unexpected tempo juggling, psychedelic shit ... Discontent in its purest form.
Volendam Disease are a relatively new band from Japan consisting of some ex-Youth Revenge members. They play blistering harsh and fast fistpumpin full tilt hardcore. They definitely have something great going with a sound that could be described as a killer traditional japanese hardcore, mixed with some euro/dutch hc trash influence from the 80's. Rippin wall of noise melodic guitar all over the place. HC friends beware, there's a new band on the block. This EP features 5 remastered tracks. For some rough sounding versions of the EP go to the bands myspace page.
