Skinman: Demo cassette

Hattiesburg hc punk, members of MSPAINT.

Our take: Skinman is another project from the punk hotbed of Hattiesburg, Mississippi, and while the first run of this demo came out on 11PM Records, Convulse Records did up another batch for the band to sell on tour, which is where our copies come from. One reason I love Hattiesburg punk is that the bands seem indifferent toward the stylistic guidelines that dictate how so many other bands sound… everything goes into the pot, and what comes out is unique. This Skinman tape is a perfect case in point… the howling, double-tracked vocals might remind you of Vice Squad or Sacrilege, but the music mixes the pogo sound of 2010-era New York with heavier, grooving mosh parts and plenty of other elements that come from across hardcore punk’s spectrum. When I write a description, I try to give you some indication of what the band or the record sounds like, but I have to throw my hands up with Skinman… I can note elements of the songs all day, but it comes together in a way that sounds like nothing I’ve ever heard. If you’re uptight about how bands “should” sound, it might be for you, but adventurous listeners will love it because it’s so unique sounding, yet still firmly in the realm of hardcore punk.
