boy, records are piling up again at my place. i have never been that much behind since the beginning of the year. ok, i am a bit dramatic right here. it's eight records on the line and a few coming in this week but still, i wanted to blog about new records a week after recieving them at latest. i will try to make a serious dent in my task to reduce the pile considerably until the end of the month. but now to the topic. xmomox's first vinyl release is one of the reasons records are piling up.
an impulse buy that i didn't really need but seemed like a good idea to add to the war from a harlots mouth and madball records i bought at backbite records. after all it simply was a good idea. xmomox is a german vegan straight edge band founded in 2010. after a self-released three-track cd demo in 2012, the band teamed up with defiant hearts records and anchored records, also both from germany, to release their first 7" called "stop time to break out".
i love how the band is in keeping with their name. momo is a book for young people written by michael ende. it plays in a fictional world where a little girl named momo fights against the sinister men in grey stealing people's time. xmomox play some solid euro-hardcore and for four bucks this was quite a no-brainer to me. check them out. there are 300 copies of "stop time and break out" pressed and all coming on black vinyl with blank labels. defiant hearts records. anchored records. 2013.
