Succumb is a band from Massachusetts (this is in the USA, if someone
forgot) and it consists of people from Orchid, Vaccine, Bucket Full of
Teeth, Ampere, Death Evocation, The Cancer Kids, No Faith, and many
others... Unfortunately, I could not find more information about them,
apparently it was a temporary project, but I would prefer to be wrong
here. But I can say with full confidence that the boss of RSRec liked
these American pizza eaters very much, since he published these 4 short
tracks on one-side vinyl (which is not common)
... 4 short but
very powerful tracks! All of them are imbued with painful social issues.
For normal, unprepared listener of country music, listening to this
band can cause inflammation in the ear, hahaha! This noisy hell can be
described by many genre tags, but I think I will focus on
"grindviolence". Out of this, knowing people should immediately
understand that is a very aggressive and fast noise punch.
I
think that there is no sense in detailed and boring disassembly of the
musical part of the seven-inch. I would note that there is very good
combination of different vocals... and of course changes of speed. Short
fast piece followed by a slowdown, which gives time to recover, and
then again a short and aggressive outbursts.
You think that this
is it? Well, no! The cover art of Punishment is one of the best pieces
on the social theme that I have ever seen. It is very detailed
combination of all nasty things that a man does to himself. I highly
recommend to get acquainted with this artistic and musical creation.
