Kussekannibalerne - S/T (EP)

MAXIMUM ROCK'N'ROLL #FEB 06
This band from Denmark, doing punk/hardcore with double bass drum bits. ''Den slags'' is the best track on this EP. I think the band is on some horror trip--there are no lyrics on here so judging by songs intros and the artwork I came to that conclusion. We have here fuzzy guitar sound, heavy bass, double bass drums, gory cover art... all this adds up to a spooky release.

LOWCUT REVIEW
Denmark's new gorepunk teen sensation! 6 in-you-face ragers that reek of 80's hardcore and punkmetal, nothing new, but Kussekannibalerne (Vagina Cannibals) possess an irrisistable desperate charm that's hard to explain, you probably also have to be Danish to get their hilarious gross fuck-you horror lyrics. ''Traktormanden'' has been one of my favorite songs this year, ''Den Slags'' got a killer catchy chorus, and ''Blod Død Blod'' is a live fave of mine though Lana's double bass drums is almost a bit too much at times. The production is violent but crisp, Martin sounds like he's about to lose it any minute, there's soundclips of ''Last House On The Left'' and Ilsa...what's not to like? Go see'em live - they'll blow you away! Buy their t-shirts and show the world that you refuse to grow up!! See interview and live review elsewhere in the issue.
