cruel hand - vigilant citizen 7"
finally, after a long time (at least that is what it felt like to me) i'm back on track. due to some personal problems, i lost all my vinyl pictures and will have to make them all anew. which in turn means that i lost my whole order. the order in which i bought the records and put them up on the blog. for you, the reader, this don't mean shit, because you don't know the order anyway. but for my little obsessive mind this is hard to bear. hopefully i won't forget any record...
but now to the piece of vinyl at hand. it's the recently released 7" teaser for cruel hand's forthcoming output. usually i don't give a damn about these teaser releases where you can listen to some songs from the album, which i will get with the album anyway, and some exclusive song, which mostly is just a useless cover song. in this case the exclusive one isn't a cover song, but to pay €5,50 for one song is still tosh. this time my curiousity outweighed all the aforementioned talk.
the two songs are quite a new direction for cruel hand. a little bit more catchy all in all. i really like it and look forward to the upcoming stuff. listen to the
title song and dance like an idiot to it in your room! just the way i did. what can't be left unmentioned is the more than stupid cover art. what the hell is this about? on the other hand, that biohazard 'tales from the hard side' vest on the back is brilliant! 1000 copies made in total. 300 on black/white swirl and 700 on my white vinyl. triple-b record. 2013.
