Barren Hellscape Anti-Genocide demo cassette
These New Zealanders’ demo is ear-shredding to the fullest. Incessant, maddening, chaotic ’90s-style noise crust that resembles Japanese and Swedish sounds in the genre. Donations for anti-genocide actions have been collected through this first glimpse of BARREN HELLSCAPE. Noise is there for sure, along with steady, fast crust cadences. Vocals are rough and angrier than usual in crust punk projects, putting this demo on a more extreme side of hardcore punk holding to metallic-driven guitar riffage and ever-ranting drum sections.
