Over Vert are a 4 piece hardcore punk band based out of Reno, Nevada. This is their Gagging & Swallowing EP released last year on Five-Ten Tapes, a record label run by the Acts of Sedition guys. Actually one of two labels run by the band, Five-Ten Tapes focusing solely on releasing tapes as you might infer from the name. Anyways, Over Vert crank out 7 tracks of rocked out and thrashing skate punk...not something I typically jam out to on a regular basis, but I've found myself enjoying this release quite a lot. Not to mention, these guys dish out a cover of Vae Victis' "What We're Made Of" from the Ugly Reflections LP. If you're not familiar with them, they were another awesome hardcore band out of Reno. Do yourself a favor and check out their S/T 12" that was posted awhile back here. The tape version features brand new letter-pressed and hand painted artwork that looks great. These are limited to only 200 copies so if you'd like one hit up the Penguin Suit Records distro and grab a copy, enjoy!
Tracks:
01. The Promised Land
02. Burning an Eye
03. The Stranger
04. Roll Forever
05. What We're Made Of (Vae Victis)

The Best of Issue 01-10 of Stylefile Graffiti Magazine. What this issue is lacking in pages it makes up for in an impressive display of graff from trains to walls. Stylefile has consistently published significant amounts of quality material, so it's safe to assume that this will not be the last issue to make its way up here.

Complain blaze through 7 tracks of ripping fast, 80's style thrash/hardcore on this 7" entitled "Make a Mistake" on 625 Thrash. Complain come out of Hokkaido, Japan...a relatively low populated, northern island area of the country. Thanks to Max for giving these guys some proper and well deserved exposure. Any fan of tight, thrashing hardcore punk with heavy hitting guitars and maniac vocals should thoroughly enjoy this EP. I'm 100% certain copies of these are still floating around, so if you dig these tracks be sure to snag a copy. After all, I only dropped 2 bucks on this record....probably the most rewarding 2 bucks I've spent in awhile. Oh, and I forgot to mention they do an awesome cover of Project X's "Dance Floor Justice". Enjoy it!

Amöba are a 4 piece act from Sweden and this is their last release called simply II. It's their second EP release after the En Döende Värld 7", and it's put out by Germany's Hardware Records this year on 7'' format of which 300 copies were made. This is fast and raw hardcore, d-beat punk with a bit trashy sound, and compared to their previous releases this one's my fave. Enjoi!!

I suppose I've been so caught up in the music aspect of things that I've completely neglected the graffiti aspect of the blog.

Bomber features content and galleries from all across the world including amazing freights, commuters and pretty much anything else you can imagine.

Drömdead come from the city of Caracas, that's Venezuela, and what this 5 piece act plays is raw hardcore punk crawling out from the 80's and by hardcore I mean the one that's been played in the colder part of this world. Yep, this EP is Scandi to the bone...raw, trashy, noisy plus add some Varukers and Discharge to the tracks...I mean, what more can you ask from a raw hc punk band. This is the Donde Esta tu Dios? (Where Is Your God?) EP. 500 copies limited edition on Moo Cow Rec's released this year with 7 hc punk ragers of which one is a Kaaos cover. I also think that I need to mention that the band's guitarist got killed a few months back. Despite that, I think the band is still going to do the Euro tour planned for this year and the upcoming split with Perdition. You can score copies of this anger driven punk release on Moo Cow, where you can also read the MRR review of Drömdead as well as other info on this Venezuelan landmine!! Enjoi DIY punk!!

Up next we have a demo by the band Negative Standards. These guys are based out of Oakland, CA and play a harsh style of hardcore with a hint of the d-beat. A few of their members also play in Acts of Sedition, another band from the Bay Area worth checking out if you havn't already. The demo includes 4 tracks, which at the moment I do not have titles for, but will update once I hear back from the band. They recently toured the upper east coast and parts of Canada, so if you had the opportunity to see them then you should be well aware of how much this demo rips! Check it out.

Container Crusties from Hell are an international band that consists of band members that come from several different countries. Well these guys come from Holland and France, though I think this is more of a French band since it has been created in a squat in Dijon, France. I think this is their first release put out as a result of their South East Asian tour somewhere around 2000, and this is the tape that I got at the show they did here around 2004 which was pretty good. Dual vocals, one is female that is as brutal as much as it is good. Also the drummer screams from the back just to amplify the whole grind crust sound that this band has. Well maybe not that much, but imagine something between Bettercore and Hiatus yet more powerful than those two. The tape has 12 tracks and was released as an LP also, and you can score the tape on CAH Records. I have no idea if this band is still playing, but I know they did a split with Dutch band Mihoen after this. Enough annoyment from me, play this!!!

Nux Vomica were based out of Baltimore, Maryland (currently Portland, Oregon) and have ex and current members of several different bands, including one of my favorites...Wake Up on Fire. This is "The Uninspired" 7", a split release between Firestarter and Torture Garden Picture Company. Nux Vomica play metallic crust and give us 3 tracks total on this record. When I purchased this several years ago I heard them described as Venom meets His Hero Is Gone, which sold me right away besides the relation to Wake Up on Fire. I would have to agree that is a pretty accurate comparison. If you enjoy this, you may also check out their split 7" with Kakistocracy located below and their full-length "A Civilized World".

Their counterparts, Nux Vomica, play a metallic blend of crust originally from Baltimore, Maryland though now based out of Portland, Oregon. Members of Nux Vomica also played in Wake Up on Fire, a sludge/crust outfit from Baltimore. If you'd like, you may check out their S/T 12" here...it's a fucking great listen. Both bands contribute 2 tracks to this split. Kakistocracy's "And So You Spill Your Children's Blood" 7" will be coming up hopefully in the near future.

Yet another hardcore punk band from Australia, and if you havn't noticed I've been indulging myself with some of the great punk music this continent has to offer. Here we have a demo by the band Eye Gouge who hail from Canberra. Released back in 2007, this demo contains 8 tracks of manic and out of control hardcore including a pretty cool cover of S.O.A.'s "Gonna Hafta Fight". I've recently checked out their "Fast, Pissed Off and Proud" EP, and they have progressively gotten better since the demo...not saying that this still isn't a killer release. I will probably throw up the 7" sometime soon as well so consider yourselves warned. Until then, put this on and hate everything and everyone.

Jaws also had members of Extortion among other bands, and members of Jaws are involved with a more current project called Clever Species. These tracks along with the tracks from their Slow Motion Suicide album have also been re-issued, and may or may not still be available from Common Bond Records...I'm not sure so you'll have to look into it!

This is Stockholm Syndrome's "One Way Out" EP on 625...which makes sense seeing as how Max played in the band. Stockholm Syndrome have since disbanded and this is the only release they put out in the time they were together. From what I've learned about this record, the tracks on here were taken from the demo they had recorded earlier. Anyways, these guys deliver 6 tracks of killer thrash/hardcore and it's a shame they never had an opportunity to give us more. Tracks 1 and 2 aren't split because they seemed to run together and after taking a closer look in audacity...they really do run together. Feel free to cry about it.
Tracks:
01. One Way Out (Down)
