No Balls - Come Clean - LP (2009)

Labels: Release the Bats
Review by: Alex Deller

Protean, repetitious punk rock sludge from Drajan Bryngelsson and Dan RÃ¥berg of Brainbombs here, and while it’s not quite the unsettling endurance test of their dayjob it’s certainly no easy ride. Made up of just drums, guitars, occasional blaring brass honks and some blurred, indecipherable vocals the emphasis is very much on catatonic lock-groove riffing and seething, wall-eyed singlemindedness, making the clangorous, clamorous result something you have to physically fight to escape if you don’t want to wind up fucked, slashed to shit and left to shiver in some needle-strewn back alley.
