Breaks, The “ … are broke” ep I hate seeing one sided records. I feel like a side was wasted. It’s hard enough to put out a record, so if one is going to come out you want to see it chocked full of stuff. I guess the BREAKS are calling it a day and only have one side worth of stuff. But it is five songs so I will make an exception. And you will too probably once you hear this firebranding rendition of hardcore that reminds me of bands like PUNCH IN THE FACE. They also sound a bit like LA PIOVRA with raw ended guitars. But the pace is “Group Sex” era CIRCLE JERKS all the way. They are from St. Louis and you don’t see a lot of bands coming from there, which makes their break up even more tragic. Five hoarks of venom to remember them by.

Jean Mills Society Torch ep A new hyper thrash band featuring members of the SPARK and DEEP SLEEP. When we are talking about hyper thrash we are talking about the fastcore pace of bands like TOTAL FURY and JRR. The vocals remind me of Mikey Bullshit meets Ray Cappo in a talk meets growl style. And the name is deceptive because I was worried this was going to sound like the WORLD INFERNO FRIENDSHIP SOCIETY. It is more along the lines of CHARLES BRONSON meets early EXCLAIM. The lyrics range from pro-choice and cop hatin’ seriousness of traditional hardcore to the joking farcical nature of contemporary hardcore in “Where’s da Sauce?”. And the band incorporates short screaming guitar solos a la modern day japacore, which is a throwback to guitar players in early day hardcore who didn’t played with every aspect of the rock song structure including the guitar solo. Short and intense keeping true to the stop ‘n go thrash pace structure of their material. (Firestarter Records / 2981 Falls Road / Baltimore, MD / 21211 / USA / www. firestarterrecords. com) – SP
