So far as I will inform, no different more or less tune, fashionable or vintage, is as constantly screaming about giant problems like international warming, possible nuclear war, and basic societal-induced nervousness than punk tune. Bands like CRASS, NAUSEA, and DISCHARGE prepared the ground for contemporary punk bands to be actual about present problems and sound just right doing it, making tune that’s similarly as loud sonically as it’s ideologically. It’s why I like and obsess over this tune and those bands such a lot; what might be higher than righteous lyrics paired with catchy riffs and rapid as fuck drums?
If any of that sounds up your alley, take a look at POLLUTE, a brand new band from Durham, North Carolina sporting on within the custom of socially conscientious uncooked punk. An identical in sound to bands like TRAGEDY and WOLFBRIGADE, POLLUTE tear it up on their new self-titled EP. Opening monitor “Nite” offers a just right assessment of the lawsuits with galloping d-beat drums accompanied by way of feedback-laden guitars and guttural vocals. “Cries Of The Long run” has the EP’s catchiest riff and a powerful MOTÖRHEAD vibe, whilst “Nuclear Cage” sounds find it irresistible can be proper at house on DISFEAR’s “Are living The Hurricane”. Nearer “Flick Of The Transfer” switches issues up with a lumbering intro prior to remaining issues out with a blistering mid-tempo stomp.
Putting them firmly close to the highest of my ones to observe checklist, POLLUTE’s EP is a cast place to begin for the band, and I’m stoked to peer what they’ll do subsequent. Checkout their EP streaming now on Bandcamp and to be had quickly on bodily structure by way of Atrocious Disarray. Additionally make sure you catch them on excursion this summer season within the Midwest and the Southern States.
