Image
Picture Credit: DIMWIND   DIMWIND - Slow Wave Violence Release Date: May 14, 2021 Label: selfrelease Format: Digital Length: 42:31 Genre: Progressive Post Rock Origin: Gothenburg , Sweden Jonas Eriksson  (drums) and Andreas Hansen  (strings, keys) have been playing music together for over twenty years. Nevertheless, it took until 2019 till they finally founded the band DIMWIND. Knowing each other for such a long time, both as persons and as musicians, is a foundation Jonas  and Andreas  can build something monumental on. In May 2021, the time has come for DIMWIND to release their first work "Slow Wave Violence". Title and cover artwork might already give you an idea of what to expect from the album. The soundscapes on this seven-track instrumental release are cold. DIMWIND musick freezing storms over the Northern oceans, the rough waves that clash against a rocky Scandinavian shore, and the melacholic and yet impressive majesty of an iceberg floating in the wate...

Album Review: Left Hand Black - Left Hand Black (2020)

Image
During my research on Left Hand Black I first found a Danzig/Misfits Tribute band from Ohio and I was like "oooh nooooo, please!". Fortunately, it turned out I was wrong. Instead, I'm reviewing the Swedish band Left Hand Black. The quartet from Gothenburg has formed from the ashes of The Dead Next Door and dedicated themselves to Horror Punk . Johan , Jonathan , Hand  and  Anton , also known as Left Hand Black will release their selftitled debut album at the end of March 2020 as CD, LP and digital copy via Wolverine Records . The release contains less than half an hour divided into 13 tracks. Of course. Music-wise a fast and raw version of Punk'n'Roll or Punkabilly is presented - typical Horror Punk one could say. Luckily, Left Hand Black add a lot of Trallpunk to their music which makes it a lot more interesting. The first album by Left Hand Black sounds a bit as if Michale Graves had met Asta Kask at a funeral, mixed their beer with bat blood and vodk...

LP Review: Disavow - Disavow (2019)

Image
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...
