Vaaska - s/t - LP (2010)

Labels: Hardware
Review by: Alex Deller

A mental, tear-you-a-new-one d-beat attack from out of Texas wherein everything’s ramped through the fucking roof and the thought of ever letting up simply never occurs. Raw and ferocious, things are equal parts spike-encrusted riffs, searing leads and garbled, snot-flecked vocals belted out in Spanish, the whole ragged mess drawing comparisons with the likes of Discharge (duh), Anti-Cimex, E-150 and Herätys whilst retaining their own individual flavour. One side features their first 12″ and the other comprises the newer ‘Ruido Hasta La Muerte’ material, meaning you get two lots of beatings for your money, along with a pretty (if illegible) black-on-black lyric sheet and big knacker-off poster to boot. Fucking awesome!
