ROT

I'd been riding on MP3's of Kremlin's 7", "Will You Feed Me?" for a few months before I decided to get my hands on a hard copy of this record a few weeks back. American press on black wax by Grave Mistake Records following an earlier Euro edition on Hardware Records. Manic, dirty hardcore punk from nowhere else but Toronto. They remind me a little of fellow Countrymen Wastoids, though they employ more higher tempos more often, they clearly don't mind a bit of a d-beat, and their recordings are a little rougher. There's also somewhat of an early 80's UK sound here in a couple of the songs. A couple tracks feature heavily reverbed vocals and the last one is a bit of a slow(er) jam with awkward guitar noodling and shrieks from their demented vocalist. For fans of punk.
