PATH TO DECADENCE: QUESTION (US) - DEMO 2006 & EP 2007 & EP 2008

QUESTION

IF YOU ARE CRUISIN' FOR A BRUISIN' - LOOK NO FURTHER!

Sold out and rare recordings seem to come hand in hand with this violent hardcore assault. They are not well represent online, and take forever to locate - and are all but out of print. For now the first ep seems available so check the links are the end of this blog.

I can't claim to know a great deal about this amazing little outfit, but the band apparently is half from NY and half from Minnesota. The bassist and also the vocalist are female, the drummer and guitarist are male - and this act kills. Rapidly up there in my opinion alongside the almighty Californians, PUNCH. The bands ofcourse do not sound even remotely similar, they hold uniqueness from eachother in so many ways, but both have plenty of capacity to hand your ass right back to you and that's what I want from harcore. The vocalist of this band is phenomenal. Period. There doesn't appear to be a weak link anywhere, every song rages so hard and leaves you wanting more and more and more, like PUNCH they are the hardcore equivalent to crack, a short intense high that turns you to an addict snorting the carpet looking for crumbs.

They've been to Europe atleast one time I see, and you can bet your ass that everyone who saw them play , or has seen them in the states, has witnessed a cluster bomb erupt in their face. There's a couple short clips on youtube and a full gig as well floating around which give testament to how intense this band is. I may as well be right back in 1987 here.

Given that the material is just so rare, I decided to zip all three recordings together for your convenience. Be aware that once you open this file you'll be splintering your furniture! You'll soon experience a band that is biological and not some sort of bullshit contrived garbage puporting to be this style or that and sound like shit after you waste your time.
