SLAN hails from Göteborg and delivers nothing but top-shelf garanterat mangel! They’ve been turning heads in Europe since their inception, and we are very excited to put this release on wax in USA. Initial pressing on Swedish label Flyktsoda Records. Disc comes housed in double-sided fold over cover and includes an insert with English translations. Each cover comes with SLAN hand-stamped on it. Bunker Punks approved - mangel up your ass!!!
Our take: Bunker Punks dropped this debut EP from Göteborg, Sweden’s Slan earlier this summer, and it’s pretty much exactly what their label was made to release: throat-ripping, raw and fast as fuck hardcore punk. The drums are way at the front of the mix and the guitar sound is totally shredded, so the emphasis here isn’t on the catchiness of the riffs, but the intensity of the performances. It’s one of those records that sounds totally unhinged, like the whole thing is going to crack under the weight of its own rippingness. It rides that edge pretty much the entire time, with just a couple of tempo changes to assure you there’s a super tight band and killer, memorable songs at the core of the frantic chaos. Fans of Totalitär’s fastest and rawest 7”s take note.
