Inferno Personale: In Ira Veritas 12″

Description

First Lp for this international band (Italy, Colombia, Germany & Argentina) based in Bremen in Germany. Totaly 11 tracks of Crasher-Crust as fuck, with 5 brand new on the side A and 6 re-recorded from the quick sold-out demo cassette on the side B during the same session, with a special mastered treatment at Noise Room in Japan for a good care of your ears!!

Our take: In Ira Veritas is the debut record from this band based in Bremen, Germany, but featuring punk expatriates from all over the world, including Italy, Colombia, Germany, and Argentina. Scarecrow played with Inferno Personale on the first night of our European tour last summer, and they peeled back our collective faces they were so raw, intense, and explosive. Thus, I had an idea of what was coming with In Ira Veritas, but even having seen the band, it did not prepare me for how stunning this record is. Inferno Personale features a member of Muro, and they have that way of maintaining an overwhelming level of intensity I associate with Muro and other contemporary Colombian punk bands like Uzi, Systema, and Primer Regimen. Im not sure how all these bands pull it off, but their music sounds like its being wrenched from deep within them, a primal howl that reaches the primitive parts of my brain. Ive seen Inferno Personale described as a crasher crust band, and while some moments (like, for instance, the album-closer, Monologue) summon that subgenres blur of intensity, what keeps me coming back to In Ira Veritas is how much compelling music Inferno Personale squeezes in amongst the constant bashing. The albums cover art is an obvious nod to Wretcheds second album, La Tua Morte Non Aspetta, and it fuses that records subtle musicality with the raw intensity of Wretcheds earlier recordings. In Ira Veritas is littered with memorable licks and riffs, dramatic rhythmic shifts, and throat-ripping howls. Like D-Clones Creation and Destroy or Confuses Indignation, its one of those rare records that grabs you by the throat with its intensity, but has the depth, subtlety, and originality to keep you flipping it over. Throw it in a beautifully illustrated, screen-printed jacket that will make the print nerds drool, and you have an irresistible package.
