POISON SPEAR - INSTITUTIONAL TRUST
Hardcore punk should make you feel like you're losing brain cells with every passing second. And let me tell you this POISON SPEAR release has my brains leaking out my ear while the grin on my face gets more deranged. No gimmicks, no complicated riffs and snotty but guttural vocals make zero compromises. Plus the title track Institutional Trust is a drawn out mosh part that'll have you slamming from side to side, getting low and slow or getting swept up in the feverish sweaty energy of an overcapacity basement gig. Expect squealing feedback, tight but explosive drumming and the ideal medium dog bark vocals. A collaborative project between local legends of Montreal QC and Charlottetown PEI, we can only hope these hooligans have more tracks in the works to keep us hanging on to the edge of the pit waiting to grab the nearest bud and shake 'em from side to side. My only complaint here is the lack of lyrics on the Bandcamp (I will forever hound every band for this... it's so easy and people like me love to read 'em!!)
POISON SPEAR are making a rare appearance at the annual La Chaine new band show in Montreal and rumour has it there may even be a cassette in the works for the true poison-heads.
