the next speedowax release in line will be hardships' 'too fast to slow down' 7" from 2013. the vinyl delivers some raw and heavy hardcore at the metallic end of the spectrum. pretty much up my alley. since then i heard nothing new from them. so in preperation for this entry, i searched the almighty oracle, known as the internet for information concerning this band from england.
i found a facebook page and discovered that these guys are hailing from leeds. but wait, the logo of the band at the top of the page looked somewhat strange, more like a metal band logo. a bandcamp page was linked but it didn't mention the 'too fast to slow down' record. ok, maybe a different band with the same name. some more research revealed a review to this 7" with a link to the band's facebook page.
well, it's the same facebook page and the band seems to have evolved into a thrash metal band. how times have changed. jake, these dudes are homies from ya neighbahood, you know anything about the change in musical style? of course speedowax didn't just press different colours of vinyl, they also made a bunch of differently coloured sleeves. 200 copies on clear red and 100 copies on black vinyl - plus four versions with the crowned victory-hand coloured in. 75 sleeves for each colour. i seem to have the silver victory-hand with clear red vinyl. speedowax. 2013.
