Regular price $13.50 Sale

"Stnnng still lives. The Minneapolis group announced its own death last year. And now he's back with four new titles. Except that this split album had been in the pipeline for several years according to the label and should have been released long before Veterans Of Pleasure or even before Negative Noise for Child Bite. So technically speaking, these are the last four titles of Stnnng's brilliant epic. Who are only three to be engraved on this single-sided picture disc whose artwork is signed Shaw Knight (the singer of Child Bite), the fourth track,Man In a Hollow Scene , being available only if you activate the download coupon slipped into this disc with its transparent plastic sleeve.

Four pieces that will not change the face of the world of Stnnng who anyway has nothing to do but which will not degrade it either. In short, a little rab doesn't hurt. A short and edgy Black Dog 2 to begin and end with a surprising tribute to Joy Division and its Transmission with Chris Besinger as Ian Curtis. Dance dance dance to the radio . A little piano on Relentless Memory Manpassing without forcing, without leaving any traces either and Stnnng attacks his best piece of the lot, What's the Secret . Besinger may repeat that he does not know what the secret is, we know that Stnnng has simply always had the infused science to create a twirling alchemy between the penetrating play full of finesse of the two guitars, the flexible rhythm with a particularly inspired drummer. and fit on this track and the abrasive grain of voice of a single singer. As for the five minutes of the bonus track that deserved to be burned onto a vinyl, Man In a Hollow Scene, it's a summary of all the musical approach of which Stnnng was capable. Classy rock, sensitive, vehement, noisy, elegant, intense and this track is a perfect conclusion to their discography. Unless Stnnng is still hiding things from us, who knows?

Child Bite presents two new, The Will To Disappear and Stag Thrall. It is written that the Detroit band cannot write an average song. Once again, Child Bite hits hard and fair. A group cataloged most of the time metal but you should not believe the people smearing chronicles. That lazy people and the uneducated. Child Bite makes a unique mix of rock, noise, punk and a tiny bit of metal that will certainly not satisfy the basic metalhead who always prefers to stick his neck out. Child Bite, a furious urge to slap with a smile and Knight's troop from behind to encourage you. His name alone is a mixture of knife and night, which is to say whether we should be wary of this guy and his three minions as bearded as him but that ' is for your greater good. A nasty and intelligent spinning top that is losing the ball on the part of a size in the genre. Two more winning moves. Enough to make you want to rush on one of the 481 copies exactly of this split." - Perte & Fracas
