Beschreibung
Platte auflegen, Pegel hochdrehen und - zack - donnert dich der Gesang von Sängerin Lisa in den Ohrensessel!
Der unvermeidliche DISTILLERS Vergleich drückt sich geradezu auf, eine brutalere Variante von ACTION PACT oder CIVET, auf jeden Fall geht es wesentlich böser und aggressiver zur Sache. Melbourne scheint eine gute Musikszene zu haben, hier spielen u.a. Leute von den genialen MARCHING ORDERS und BULLDOG SPIRIT mit. Die 10" hat 6 hammerharte Streetpunk-Nummern und kommt mit einen digitalen Downloadcode für eure modernen Endgeräte

Stranglehold - s/t
Contra Records/Longshot Music/Pirate Press - EP -
Stranglehold is one of present Aussie bands which have woman in line up (in that case two women â singer and guitarist Lisa and guitarist Brod). On bass plays there is Ben from Marching Orders (who is related to Brod). As I wrote in some reviews before this one (on Cashing on Christmas), Lisa has really rough vocal (sounds me like after the bottle of vodka) and we can surely compere her to Brody Dalle from The Distillers for example. On 10´´ EP you will find six songs (including cover from UK Subs â Stranglehold which is really harder than original version mainly because of Lisa´s vocal). Other songs are called Stepping Stone, Institution, Walking Death, Burn the Radio and Knock Me Down. Music is really good and it keeps on going forward in middle and faster rhythm. Album is opened by Stepping Stone which is one of the best songs from the album for me mainly because of the guitar (like Marching Orders). Great is also short and fast song called Walking Death about the society of nowadays. Next great song is called Knock Me Down. EP is limited to 600 copies in colored versions (I have the silver one). It´s a pity, that there is no paper with lyrics inside, but good indeed.
