SIC SENSATIONS / STRIPMINES / DEVOUR / COKEBUST: Split: Cassette

Nov 16, 2010

This is one of those “you had to be there” or “you really must love these bands” kind of deals. I really like Devour, and Coke Bust. And what I can hear of Sic Sensations and Stripmines, they must be pretty good as well. However, the recording is not all that hot. Granted, it’s a live recording from their show at Kent House in Raleigh. But the vocals for all the bands sound like they’re recorded in a metal shed, which ends up sounding like “bwaaahhh bwaaaahhhhh!” The music sounds a little flat, but the chaos and energy come through. If you weren’t there at the show, or are a diehard fan of the any of the bands on here, there’s really no reason to get this. It’s not horrible, it’s just not necessary.
