the half belgian half german steam roller strikes again. this time they release their shokka (is that shocker or what?) onto the world. and boy, they are pissed. nothing changed here you might say? right you are! if you loved nasty beforehand, after listening to their fifth record you'll love them even more.
next to the nasty trademark sound, that probably got a bit faster which is good in my humble opinion, again the lyrics are remarkable. simple truths told with direct words. they name and shame shady acting towards the other sex from both sides, money fueling the decadence of few and breeding the poverty of so many and how politics fuck you over with false promises. best in my book is the song 'politessenhass' (meter maid hate). lovely.
you can check the whole album here. 'shokka' went on pre-order in early january and i was lucky to get a copy of the most limited colour purple marble out of 100. the whole first press sold out pretty fast and all at pre-order stage. so quickly bdhw came up with a second press on green marble vinyl. get your copy here. goodfight also did an u.s. pressing. beatdown hardwear. 2015.
