HOLIER THAN THOU?

YOU CAN'T HAVE SLAUGHTER WITHOUT LAUGHTER


This is a band I always wanted to see in the early 2000’s but never got to, I actually picked up their first 7 inch because there was a skater on it and after hearing it was hooked; from the sound to the artwork this band has everything my senses want.  This new release was actually recorded in 05 while the band was still together, I don’t really know why it took so long to come out but it did not disappoint. If you have not heard this band it a must, they are the perfect combination of punk and thrash.  The latest release has some serious metal riffage along side with some driving punk beats.  This band has obvious Oxnard influences like RKL, Aggression, and Dr. Know but throws on some early era Metallica (obviously from the bands name) and DRI.  While having all these influences this band really does a good job of still being original and sounding very unique.  This is a must own record if you are into punk or thrash, the lyrics and sound of the vocals will not only keep these songs stuck in your head but also make you want to strangle the world while skating down the street.


Here is a link to the Six Weeks label for more info about getting the record, I would pot a link to it but I can't find it anywhere...

Here is a link to listen to their record "The Hating of the Guts"
