Nomad 自殺 (Suicide) cassette
A well-deserved reissue of NYC punks NOMAD’s 2013 EP. Heavily influenced by legends DISORDER and CONFUSE, NOMAD is a fine example of this style and leaves nothing to be desired for fans of classic, raw D-Beat. Sung in Japanese and featuring the fuzzy hum of distortion that we all know and love, each track on this tape absolutely rips. “人生 (Life)” is particularly great, featuring an intro that gives each instrument a moment to shred before the drums lock in and go full-force ahead. Highly recommended and essential.
