Communicates - Restricted (Psychocontrol records)
BANZAII!!! I mean mail day, haha!) I was damn excited about this parcel, and in particular for this release. It's very rare for a labels (especially fro Europeans labels), to release such bands, (which makes me very sad). That is why I`m very exited to see these new shiny tunes, being released through Psychocontrol Records. For those of you who are not familiar with this act, - Communicates is a fast noisy act from Suginami city. I don't know when they were founded, or how many releases they`ve made, but thats not so important. The main, and most delicious thing, is hidden in their music, I`m sorry, in their noise.
So, the tunes... you get 5 fast, fun songs ,in just under 10 minutes.“Restricted”, opens up with "Triforce", this track is like a minor explosion, filled with powerful energy, 1:30 and it's over. These guys shreds trough the tracks with a freaking amazing, and intense raw energy. This style is often being defined as "Japanesecore, or Japcore" by many of us, and under this tag, we usually mean a damned filthy mix of Punk, Thrashcore, Hardcore and Rock n roll. Indeed, this ep is full of these genres. Crazy drumming, crashing sound of cymbals… nice and loud yelling, endless buzzing guitar noise and some silly simplicity. This dangerous mix, will make you grab the nearest skateboard, and skate yourself to death, haha!) The final track, “Protect the Answer”, is a stand out. With the longest title on the album (and also the longest track on here), this is a perfect way of ending this noisy thing. These tunes are running pretty slowly, until the end of the track, then it culminates in a surprisingly fast and powerful smack RIGHT in the face.
This tiny slab of vinyl could be a good alternative, (or rather a breath of fresh air), to those of you, whos run a bit tired of the usual standard grinding blast beat madness, pitchshifted nauseating vocals, and technical riffs…

KSM 40 - The Taste of Rust
We continue exploring the world of German music. This time I decided to write about the KSM 40 band. I got really confused by the art on the cover at first. First I thought that this was some kind of crust (these guys love to draw something similar), but when I took a closer look I realised that I was wrong. That's the goddamn super Sonic! Hahaha, it might have been designed in some weird way and it seems like he is not feeling well but it is definitely him. The artist dedicated the cover to the world of old school video games, but unfortunately I'm not a gamer at all, so Sonic was the only character I recognized) What's interesting is that it’s the second time I see such a rare thing. Other than that, there’s a hyper link to download the album. This is very useful for those who doesn't have a vinyl player and they have just bought this vinyl copy to support the band.
The content of "The Taste of Rust" is following: it's a well-balanced hardcore-punk with a reference to thrashcore. Fast, noisy and sencere. It’s nothing unusual but these Germans are quite fun and cheerful. You could listen to all the songs on one breath and won't get bored once. Do you remember me talking about the game-themed cover? Sure thing, these guys didn’t forget to add some music from old school video-games to their tracks. «KSM40 bleibt!» is the song in which you could hear squek and clacking game sounds mixed with the music we are used to.

Collision – Satanic Surgery (Hammerheart Records)
Well, finally, we have Collision giving birth to their new album. Like in the previous one, Satanic Surgery, the cover art was designed by Luis Sendón (also known as a member of Nashgul). I have to admit, he is a very cool artist. The character which he portrayed looks like the product of someone's nightmares. Demonic surgeon cutting his next victim into pieces... shit, that's creepy. I think that the fact that guys signed to Hammerheart Records, can be considered as a very good step in the development of the band.
Collision never betray themselves and their fans. This album is not any worse than the previous one and I am very happy that this is the case (after all, because so many bands have the unpleasant feature of doing some awful shit after they've recorded something cool and powerful) Here we have the same good old mix of grind and crossover. This mixture can give you a nice burst of energy.
Furious crossover landscapes floating into fast grindcore blasting earthquakes and vice versa. The music sounds like the biggest mountains collapse! Personally for me the main track of this album is Touch Me, Jesus :)
