Take a deep breath and brace yourself before diving into this international Split LP featuring Judy and The Jerks (Hattiesburg, Mississippi) and Shitty Life (Parma, Italy). These two bands unleash a sonic onslaught that’s nothing short of exhilarating.
We’re no strangers to the electrifying hardcore punk of Judy and The Jerks, and their new material is pure gold. Blazing at thunderous speeds while maintaining tight control and melody, their 10 tracks could fit on a 45RPM single and still sound fast when played at 33RPM. It’s grade-A awesomeness from start to finish. On the flip side, Shitty Life delivers more hardcore punk goodness. Their songs blend familiar, straightforward riffs with unexpected breaks and original twists that keep you hooked.
The split LP is available from Refuse Records, and you can snag the tape at Earth Girl Tapes.
