Description
D-beat/hardcore from Norfolk, VA.
Our take: The demo tape from Norfolk, Virginias N.A.T. sounds like it should bear a sticker reading Warning: contents under pressure. While they seem to have both contemporary and early 80s influences, their tapes compressed, claustrophobic reminds me of the way Black Flags Damaged seems to carry more music and more emotion than it can hold, giving it an explosive sound that appears to be coming apart at the seams. Riffs bleed into fuzz and noise, while the hoarse and distorted vocals often collapse into the other instruments quagmire. That production combined with N.A.T.s loose and wild playing style makes this sound unhinged in all the right ways. If you like your hardcore nasty and feral, give N.A.T. a look.
