first tape from wasted harvest. fast, slow, freak show hardcore straight from the go.
"WASTED HARVEST are back following their split tape with FLOWER POWER and they’re still flying the freak flag high for hardcore in the North (Yorkshire via the North East).
If you don't read any further, just know that WASTED HARVEST pick up directly where MECHT MENSCH and TAR BABIES left off, without descending into jazz funk - at least not yet.
Chainsaw melodies, mired in murk. Pained dirges worthy of SST. Actual lyrics you can understand, not tough guy barks. You like DIE KREUZEN? UNITED MUTATION? ZERO DEFEX? Then you’ll like this, simple as that.
Yes this is music for people's whose main geographical reference points for the USA is where bands who released one tape in 1982 were from, but it's not just for nerds (although them too). It's music committed to keeping things interesting, to not being boring, to songs going in places you don’t expect. But Frank Zappa this is not. It's also not "weirdo hardcore" or "egg punk". Hardcore has been ‘weird’ from the start and only became boring and formulaic over time. WASTED HARVEST are a reminder of why you cared in the first place.
It's also got straight-to-tape production that sounds like it's ready to get chewed up in the deck at any moment. Disintegration loops for hardcore freaks. Essential shit, in other words."
