Deletr: S/T 12″

Description

Ahead of the bands US tour in spring 2024, Sorry State presents a US pressing of the second album from Saint tienne, Frances Deletr. When Kick Rock and Destructure released these tracks in May 2023, the worldwide raw punk undergrounds response was a resounding FUCK YES! Taking inspiration from Totalitr, Skitkids, and Hertys, Deletr alternates between maximum-tempo fury and grooving, mid-tempo head smashers, but no matter the BPM, the intensity is always through the roof. The riffs are the centerpiece, heavy and raging, but so catchy youll be humming them in the shower the morning after your late-night kng party. Alongside the top-notch riffage, Deletrs songs are anchored by infectious shouted choruses and scorching twin guitar leads spring from every nook and cranny. The playing is way in the pocket, with a beastly kick drum that sounds like an enormous door slamming in the depths of hell. Its one of those records where everything comes together seamlessly, its great songs, huge production, and commanding performance making Deletrs second album a clear high-water mark in contemporary hardcore punk.
