Das Drip: S/T 12″

Description

After a scorching demo and three standout contributions to the American Idylls compilation, Sorry State is proud to present the debut release from Raleigh, North Carolinas Das Drip. When Das Drip went to record with Kris Hilbert at Legitimate Business studio in Greensboro, North Carolina, they told him they wanted their record to sound like Government Issues Legless Bull EP. While it does sound a lot like the explosive snot-punk of early GIs (as well as hormone overdoses like Gang Greens This is Boston Not LA tracks or Negaziones Tutti Pazzi EP), no one will mistake this for retro rehash. Most of Das Drip is double the age of your typical Teen Idle, and theyve spent those years listening to and playing a lot more than just hardcore. Which isnt to say this is mature either; after all, how can you call a record mature when its catchiest lyrics are tapeworm hanging out your butt? Most hardcore bands attempts to articulate rage and angst look like a three year olds temper tantrum next to Das Drips debut, which is wilder, faster, crazier, and more intense than pretty much anything you can toss at it. Maybe Das Drip is for people who dont like hardcore anymore because of the macho attitudes, unimaginative tunes, uninspired playing, or any number of other valid reasons. Really, though this record is perfect for anyone who wants the opposite of a Spotify playlist with the word chill in the title.
