LP Review: Disavow - Disavow (2019)
Hell yeah, this is intense! Disavow from Gothenburg, Sweden have recently released their first full-length album "Disavow". The record features eleven tracks of ice-cold rusty-metallic (post-)Hardcore. The quartet was founded in 2016 and has so far released a five-track CD called "Half Empty" via Epidemic Records. Two years later their self-titled LP "Disavowal" is finally available via Straight Edge WorldWide, Epidemic Records, Refuse Records, Useless Pride Records, and can be streamed either there or on bandcamp, Spotify, and probably elsewhere. You know how to use the internet. The eleven tracks on Disavow's debut are characterized by heavy riffing, strong distortion, various and severe beats, halting passages, and fast-forward attacks by all four musicians punching you straight in the face. I would describe the style as some sort of heavy darkened metallic Hardcore with a little Sludge here, and a little Crust there. Disavow play powerful music...
