Gimmick: New Release

 

If you follow a little bit what's happening on the freak side of the hardcore punk scene or if you visit this blog from time to time you may have heard of Gimmick from Portland and their Quarantine tape.

Well the four punks from Oregon are back with a self-titled EP (only digital for now but I am sure Sorry State or another hardcore label will make a vinyl release soon enough).

 

Gimmick keeps the recipe of nasty hardcore punk and makes it even darker and heavier than ever. Fuck your positive attitude, these guys are all about negativity and anger, vomiting reject and hate.

Alternating between fast and slow parts, the guys from Portland master furiousness in both tempo, reminding the most trashy hardcore part of the "freak punk" scene... like U-nix and the Beta Boys jamming with a back-from-the-dead decomposed Darby Crash on cocaine...

Yes this EP is the contained anger of a terrible day at work being treated like shit by your asshole boss, this EP is the overflow of disgust for our modern times watching a presidential debate, this EP is all the frustration of your teenage years and even more...  

 

Gimmick is pure anger management therapy! 

 

 

 

 

You can listen to Gimmick on Rien à Faire #15.
