Split
yourself apart – is absolutely badass Russian-Finnish split of four
bands, who know the sense of being badass! Let’s start from the very
beginning. First five songs are energetic and musically various tracks
from Assenizators from Petrozavodsk, RU. One can find here punk-rock,
ska, metal and Balkan and Gypsy folk… The extrinsic value of songs is
represented by the fact that, unfortunately it is the last release
starring guys from Assenizators. Further go 5 songs of well known
katu-punk band Rejected. The aesthetics of street hooligans from a
small near-border town Lappeenranta, FL, consists of: pubs, parties,
emotions, friends and fun (which is no wonder), though the lyrics is
more actual than above-mentioned topics (you can find it in the
booklet) , but in musical sense everything is quite encouraging,
streetpunk in old European tradition! Well, next participants are
psychos from Joensuu, FL, Relentless. Psychobilly Karelian-style is
close to the Australian the Living End! Though Relentless is more
psychopunk, direct and rather energetic, melancholic enough and
sometimes even dramatic. Good at encouraging old school veterans to the
both sides of Russian-Finnish border. The last band on the split is
skate-punk trio from Istra, Moscow area, RU. Highly-qualified speedy
records lead us to the city of “cops and taxists”. The lyrics is
simple, a little bit vulgar, but together with the skillfully played
music we get very cool theme without any prejudice and complexes! So,
if you decided to have fun at weekend with your old friends, grab this
CD and a pack of beer and you will have good mood for sure ?
