It’s the Lipstick on Your Teeth – Skintrade

by Dæv Tremblay

Between noise and hardcore, Austrian group It’s the Lipstick on Your Teeth just released the highly-anticipated Skintrade, a thirty-minute escapade into noise punk that will leave you asking for more. Michelle’s aggressive yet melodic vocals are at the forefront of the band’s assault, which is heavily complemented by synths and samples, which make up most of the background instrumentation.

In conclusion, Skintrade is a very worthy addition to your noise punk playlist.

Same goes for the music included on ΛΗΘΗ’s first full-length 12’ LP, which appears as a tool of disenchantment and awakening. Ten tracks inspired by futilities such as daily life’s horror, religion, love, despair and the fear in which mankind is helplessly doomed to, seem like a violent watercourse, drowning everyone into its caustic, subversive depths.

Diving into the album, we come across a chaotic and ardent aggregation that crushes them ignorant lees, … Read more

The very first song of Between Colours & Time is Lost

by Dæv Tremblay

Post-hardcore-ish band with hints of punk and progressive stuff just released their first-ever song via a video on facebook.

This looks quite promising as they seem to integrate things of various origins in the song, we can only hope to see more of this in the future, and that they go a bit crazier.

Show them some support on facebook!
