It is funny. Somehow Farmer’s Blvd’s singer sometimes seems to be the missing link between Just Went Black’s Sven and Tackleberry’s Hannes. The music for instance is harder to contextualize.
Mid tempo old school parts alter with speeding thrashy parts alter with 90s like grooves alter with new schoolish riffing. There is a zine called allschools and maybe that would be the perfect label for this band for one drawer just isn’t enough.
I really like the giant “good night white pride” logo inside the digi pack and the two songs about/against nationalism and especially against the “du bist Deutschland” campaign speak my heart. It was so sad being at the Cry Me A River fest in Bielefeld and watching the match germany-sweden in a nearby russian diner and seeing that when germany scored all the kids from the festival except Lars of Escapado and me were yelling. What the fuck? Is hardcore really all about tattoos and flesh tunnels? Thanx for taking a stance!
Concerning the music my moods are mixed. In some moments it really kicks my ass and in others it just bores me. But it isn’t bad really. It is more that I just ain’t into it right now. Especially the more 90s parts with grooves and new school riffs and beats aren’t mine right now. But this will find its friends for sure. But the hidden track? Well, sponge over…
