DIE
WRECKED - 'Mongrel Hordes' CD review
"First
off, I must apologise for the fact that these guys did post me a
physical copy of this with a cool little press release printed on
bright orange paper, but for the life of me I can't remember where I
put it, and am therefore being forced to review this via the less
favourable format of Bandcamp. Anyway, DIE WRECKED from Leicester
play really awesome pissed-off political hardcore punk with dirty
power-chorded riffs, loose but blistering drum-work, and three way
vocals (one shouty male, one gruff male, and one high-pitched female)
that layer and intersect brilliantly. I wish I still had the CD with
the lyrics so I knew exactly what they were singing about, but song
titles like 'Middle Class Hypocrisy', 'Get Off the Fence', and
'Privileged Parasite' should give you a pretty good idea of the tone
of this. Favourites for me would have to be 'Subhumans', 'Regression
of Progression', and aforementioned opener 'Middle Class Hypocrisy',
but if you're into short, sharp, noisy, political punk rock that
doesn't let up, then you can't go too far wrong with this."
