Schtöggminator- Schtöggminator EP
(Luftwaffel Records WAF10)
From Aural Innovations #37 (Sep 2007)
Not sure what the hell the name means but this is like UK hardcore with a bit of strangeness thrown in. Fast, furious nasty complex angst rock from Trondheim, Norway…. It is going to be strange when you get guys from the bands Seid, Bomber, No Life Orchestra and Ping in the same room…. While this has a very punky hardcore nature to it, the songs are pretty complicated (at least some of them). You get 10 short blasts (only 1 track is over 3 minutes!). Some of the songs really remind me of Chaos UK (voice??) but then the band mix in some strange synths here and there. This is a quite unique take on UK style hardcore… Give it a shot…
