400 BLOWS.

You always know what to expect when 400 Blows comes around.
Definitely one of the most minimalistic and sincere bands I have been witness to on many an occasion.

I recorded this off the 'webernet a few years ago at the time it aired, plus I made you some sweet-ass cover art too, so double score for you!

Truly a "party band" in every sense of the word...

400 Blows - 05.18.2004 "Lock Up", BBC Radio




Now playing: Raw Radar War - Rupture

TRASH TALK.

Sacramento's new Kings of what-I-perceive-to-be Powerviolence just keep getting better and better. Along with the usual million-miles-an-hour battery comes some heavy groove/sludge to keep you on edge.

Why can't there be more bands like this?

This falls somewhere between INFEST and CURSED, and like those two legendary bands, this release is (too) short and sweet.

More, PLEASE....
