A hefty charge of synth-enhanced in-your-face hardcore and garage punk driving straight into the abyss in an act of blissful defiance, that’s what we’re geting on the debut tape of Buffalo NY group Havana Syndrome. On one hand this shit has a bit of an unhinged Lumpy And The Dumpers energy and a straightforward attack akin to that Feed/Zhoop/Brundle/Nightman/etc dude but just as much i feel reminded of a number of varyingly egg-leaning groups like Baltomore’s Quitter, Italy’s own The Bad Plug, the greek eggpunk pest that is Μπριτζολιτσεσ and there’s also an undeniable hint of early Skull Cult or Research Reactor Corp at play here.
