Qiik Qiik demo cassette

Fast, pummeling hardcore punk from Honolulu, Hawaii. A demo living up to how I imagine their band name is pronounced, cramming all eight songs into a mere three minutes and twelve seconds, with the longest track on the demo clocking in at a whopping forty seconds. QIIK stomps through song after song, barely giving you enough time to comprehend what just transpired before clicking immediately into the next track. The physical cassette is somewhat hard to follow along with, as the tracks are recorded on a loop with each side not necessarily starting with the first track. Nobody is manning the rolley-coaster, so buckle in, turn it on, and enjoy the ride complete with bonus laps.
