Marvelous Bareno!!! cassette

Raw, tight, and flawlessly fast fastcore like in the old days from Ashikaga, Japan, with serious connections to positive attitude and anti-nuclear hardcore punk from the late ’80s and early ’90s, and some forms of skate punk for sure with their anthemic and melodic impasses. The vocals are effusive with frantic, energetic, powerful attitude, while the drums organically blast and create excellent sections. In this particular style, it has been some time since I’ve heard something that triggers that happy violence feeling. Greatly surprised.
