Hate Preachers: demo cassette
New band from East 7th Punx / Blazing Eye members.
Our take: Another 5-song demo from an LA-based band featuring members of Blazing Eye, but this time the culprits are Hate Preachers. This demo has the same perfect recording quality as Cruelty Bomb (it’s nearly as perfect as an old Inner Ear recording), but Hate Preachers have a UK82-influenced style rather than Cruelty Bomb’s straight d-beat. The vocals still have that raspy, Japanese-type sound a la Blazing Eye, so these straightforward, mid-paced riffs might remind you of G-Zet or mid-era Execute just as much as the Exploited or the Partisans. Like Cruelty Bomb, I can’t think of much else to say… whatever magical fairy dust they’re sprinkling on these recordings, I wish I could get some of it for my own bands.
