xdigx - reality check split 7"

i ordered this 7" many moons ago from demons run amok entertainment together with another lp that will be put up real soon. a little coincidence that my next two posts will be recent demons releases too. but now to the split record of this post. the two bands sharing the sides of this vinyl plate are xdigx from france and reality check from poland.

reality check was the band that caught my attention here because i wrote about their 7" on ratel records last year. it was good enough to push me towards the decision of buying this new output too. their two songs on here, is what i had expected to get. no frills, nyhc worshipping hardcore. solid stuff. the french men from xdigx are playing stuff pretty much in the same vein but that's all the problem. just more of the same if you ask me.

again i'd like to point your attention to both bands bandcamp pages, so you can check for yourself. once arrived at the xdigx page, you can also expirience some songs of their full length on street survival records. as for the reality check counterpart, you can also listen to the above mentioned 7". there are 150 copies on this nice opaque gold vinyl and 250 copies on black. get them here. demons run amok ent./ratel records. 2013.

reality check - the world on my shoulders 7"

after throwing the unveil and the avalanche 7" into my cart i was able to add another piece of vinyl. the hardcore scene in poland seems to be up and coming. next to this reality check release, others will appear on this blog in due time.

reality check play some heavy nyhc influenced hardcore. they sound a lot like madball. and this is their only weakness. a little bit too similar to the well-known american hardcore legends. but if you like madball, be sure to check them out.

the record appeared on ratel records, a label from poland. they added a small note to the release. i like their attitude. it's printed on english and polish. i just took a photo of the english part. check it out on the picture below.

you can listen to some songs on optional the band's or the label's bandcamp. the limited coloured vinyl comes on red. the quantity pressed is 200 copies. ratel records. 2012.
