Boss of Tadpole Records (a label which is now seemingly no more though the Youtube channel still gets regularly updated https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCNQ94EnA_DMB-9wd9eilmg) Darren Bourne has kindly taken the time out to share his thoughts on one of his favourite releases of the year. I've chosen the song at the bottom of the update...
Obsessió – Obsessió
12” MLP
Sometimes I hear that
Punk's Dead, I find this a crazy statement in 2019 as there seem to be
a ton of great bands around right now, and some as pissed off
sounding (or more so) than the classics out there. Obsessió are one
such band with members from Athens & Barcelona and they've just
released a MLP on La Vida Es Un Mus from London. This 8 track MLP of
raging raw Hardcore hasn’t got a track longer than 2 minutes long &
that’s fine by me, for fans of TOTALITÄR, CRUDITY, OTAN and other
Nordic Beat greats.
Sleeve artwork is by Teodoro Hernández (Otan, System Defector, etc) who effortlessly captures the bleakness and rage contained in this PUNK 45 RPM 12”.
I think along with the Irreal “Fi Del Mon” LP (also on LVEUM) this will end up on a lot of “Best Of” lists at the end of the year, the more raw Hardcore being released the better in my opinion, now I just need to see these bands live as that’s where the magic’s at.
