Crowd Deterrent are about to get some new music out

Crowd Deterrent dudes are not letting go and you're damn wrong if you thought they gonna stop. The band got some new shit waiting to be released and all the signs in heaven and hell show that it will give all the oversensitive dudes and fake ass shit talkers a proper heart attack. Here's what they got to say about it:

We have 5 brand new songs recorded and ready to go. No idea if we will release them as an EP, a split, or do a full length. New material is the early demos mixed w/ Blood and Family, there are songs w/ blast parts and more of an early demos era feel as well as Blood and Family type jams. We are also working on getting all the old recordings re-mastered and some re-recorded and re-engineered for superior quality because let's face it, some of those recordings sucked but they had good songs. Check out our new projact we are doing called RACE RIOT for some more straight up violence!

Bands history:

In 2004 three friends from the neighbourhood - Kuma (vocal), Sivy (bass) and Mlody (drums) - realised that all of them were interested in hardcore music and culture. They got the idea to set up a band and then they started meeting in a garage to practice playing. When Jaco (guitar) joined the band, Kuma quit playing the guitar and focused on vocals. In summer 2006 bass player Sivy left the band and Hater took his place. March 2007 BFA entered the Chinook studio in Debica, where they recorded their demo "Inside Conflict". The demo consists of five songs that can be put into hardcore/metal genre. The last line-up changes took place 2008, when Kruger filled in for Hater. Currently BFA release second CD "Faith" EP recorded in Spaart Studio in Boguchwała near Rzeszów. Help us: Unhuman, Contraband Radio, NNC, hard-core.pl, Oldschool H8, Conflagration webizne.

Parasitic Skies - Embers

I’ve been listening to Embers off and on for some time now and to be honest, it didn’t really jump out at me right away, but the more I listened to this, the more I liked it. The sound on the EP is raw and dirty, but at the same time pretty catchy, and I definitely like it that way.

Although this is a 4-song EP, Parasitic Skies succeed in making Embers an appealing effort. There are no fake moves here, from the start they’re getting right down to business and keeping it as hard as it should be. An Abcess is an appropriate starting point for the EP, setting the tone for what can be expected during the rest of the songs. Boasting raw and relentless riffs accompanied by a brutal drumming and deep growling vocals, the song embodies the kind of sound that was long absent in the scene. It could be best described as new school with a lot of inputs from death metal and it kind of reminds me of the 90’ when a lot of vegan straight edge bands were doing it like this. In many cases, it was plain boring and generic, and using the vegan and straight edge image seemed just like a poor excuse for lack of musical skills. Nonetheless, there was couple of bands that were doing this stuff right. Just remember names as Apostle, early Reprisal, Abnegation or Deformity and you’ll know what I mean.

The metal sounding songs featured on Embers definitely bring back memories of those days and even not being the biggest fan of this style, I can appreciate the amount of aggression and energy Parasitic Skied delivers. Mid-tempo grooves form the foundation of their music but the songs are also filled with parts where the tempo significantly increases. The tracks are detailed with good dose of breakdowns and changeups that keep them far from getting trivial and chaotic like a lot of deathcore bands today. I definitely rather listen to Parasitic Skies than to another lame ass deathcore band with squealing pig on the vocals.

It’s not the type of music that will appeal to the common taste nowadays when it comes to combining hardcore with death metal. There are no girly melodic parts in here, no clean vocals or bullshit lyrics. No cheap tricks here. Just an honest band that is serious about what they do and the message they’re trying to get across to the listener. If you are looking for a brutal and metallic hardcore give it a try.

Label showcase: Clandestine Project / Retribution Records

From now on we will dedicate some space over here at Hardboiled to shed some light on hardcore labels that we feel are doing a great job giving quality bands chance to release their material. It will feature interviews with new and established labels from around the world and I think it might be an interesting to find out what folks who are providing us with all these thrilling albums think about the current state of hardcore, record sales etc. This might be also pretty informative for all the folks trying to launch their own label or bands trying to get noticed. We’ll start thing off with a chat with Hiro from Clandestine / Retribution Project.

We’ll start thing off with a chat with Hiro from Clandestine / Retribution Project.

What made you decide to start your own label? Did you have any initial vision how would it operate and what type of bands you would be putting out?

Yeah I was thinking there are more good bands in the world HxC scene but some of young bands hard to get deal with label. There is too much downloading but I’m sure pressing CD is much better than web site release. (Because of real cd with real booklet) So I started my label and hooked up my close band called DOGGY HOOD$.

What are some of the biggest obstacles you had to face when setting this thing off?

Yeah we are hailing from Japan, some of FOREIGN label or distributers are not interested in Japanese works, that’s bad but we can release great music through clandestine. I know too many bands are releasing in the world all time but hope to people from world gonna see what we are doing.

What are some of the albums you have released so far and what was the key to choose bands you want to work with?

I don’t care EXACT category for my label if the band is playing METALCORE or DEATHCORE or BEATDOWN or OLD SCHOOL or RAP SHIT but need to put HEAVY/BRUTAL shit through HxC theory. Also I’m big fun of HxC music so I listen to the music at first if we sign with new band.

What advice would you give to the upcoming bands when they’re trying to get labels interested in their shit? What most of them are doing wrong?

Yeah we gonna put VOW OF HATRED mid DEC. that’s will be totality SICK. Heavy as hell. Often we are getting requests from the band that wants put cd on label. Off course I can talk to something but most bands didn’t check my current release or latest band. That’s terrible. I need to know about yourself and you need to know about myself. That’s the most important thing on deal.

So besides your website, where can people find your records?

Yeah Basically I’m doing distribution called RETRIBUTION NETWORK. I have tons young to big bands titles on our store and we can accept worldwide shipping. Especially I’m pushing the bands that haven’t release cd. We want to hook up such young bands on Clandestine but we need to recover pressing cost from current release and the money will be next pressing cost. We should distribute to more international distro but sometimes hard to send to USA distros. We should find more good way for distribution in whole world.

If any distribution or a label would like to carry some of your CDs, what should they do?

Yeah that’s honor thing so we can send to any country. Please contact me. Off course we can accept TRADE things with any label if want. We can spread each other. That’s perfect.

For all the vinyl collectors out there, how possible is a vinyl release from the Clandestine in the near future?

I Think vinyl format is not popular in here. People would love to take CDS. So actually we don’t have any vinyl release on clandestine but if we get good sales of future titles, I would love to release vinyl version too haha.

As someone who puts a lot of his hard work, dedication and money into making those hardcore records see the light of the day, what’s your opinion on mp3 downloading? Do you feel it can benefit you because some of the kids who download your music for free might actually want to support the band and buy the record?

Yeah I knew there are too many free down load on the blog or share wear. I told I thought real cd is better than mp3 format. BUT I see MP# is really useful. Because I also have IPOD and put tons mp3 on my iPod. We can’t stop such an illegal download system so really hard to sell cds in 5-10 years. But I’m trying / thinking what we can do in the best way to spreading CLANDESTINE RELEASE.

So how do you think hardcore labels can benefit from the use of Internet promotion and digital music distribution, things that seem to be shaping the overall music market nowadays?

Yeah I accepted few download deal ever for my other label RETRIBUTION ENTWORK. If I know and trust the person who can hook up this business, I can do something but we need to sell REAL AUDIO cd before starting download system. Its might be 6 to 8 months after release date. Not exactly but yeah I want to sell CDs first and we can do download thing if any people would like to work with me.

What’s happening in the Japan hardcore scene nowadays? Any good bands you would recommend?

Yeah there are good bands in Japan. And some of foreign bands came to here every month. I’m doing the band called LOYAL TO THE GRAVE and there are good bands around us like CRYSTAL LAKE, EXTIGUISH THE FIRE, DOGGYHOOD$, BIRTHPLACE or GENESIS, CANOPUS. Any kinds of music also there are good bands in Japan like NUMB, CREEPOUT, FIGHT IT OUT, AS WE LET GO, SILENCE KILLS THE REVOLUTION, ENDZWECK, SAND, CLOSER, SLAPDOWN and many more.

I’ve seen some show posters from Japan where you could see hardcore bands sharing a stage with some hip hop acts. What’s the relation between hardcore and hip hop scene in Japan and do you think it’s possible that you release a rap album in the future?

Yeah sometimes HARDCORE bands gonna play with HIPHOP unit as a good festival or shows. Some of HIPHOP group has good relationship with HxC bands but most famous HIPHOP group is not interested in kind of HxC music. Its maybe just noisy music haha. So I’m thinking hard to unite both music scenes perfectly. HIPHOP music is one of overground music in here because of Japanese lyric. But most hardcore bands around us are singing in English so stay in underground. But I’m sure there is great huge fes in here like FREESTYLE OUTRO, MURDER THEY FALL etc. I really like HIPHOP and HxC mix style music. So if we get chance to release such music on our label, I do it! Off course if the music would be pure hip-hop too.
 

Personally, what are your favorite hardcore and non-hardcore bands? What type of stuff you enjoy to listen?

Yeah difficult to answer this questions because I’m listening tons music because of my distro. I like any kind of most music off course HxC, METAL, HIPHOP or R/B, and J-pop. But I can tell my current fav music: Buried Alive, Earth Cirisis, Another Victim, All Out War, Section 8(troy), and Conviction. and I like such a current bands Reign Supreme, xRepresentx, Fatality, Bishop, Suicide Pact, Thick As Blood, Recon, Knock Em Dead, Heavy Hitters, Blackout Rage, Ghostxship, xProvidencex etc. also I’m listening current metalcore, deathcore stuff. About HIPHOP I like east coast 90's hip-hop. Especially QUEENS and south BRONX. MOBB DEEP is the rule. Also Kool G Rap, E-Money Bags, Tragedy Khadafi, Big Punisher and Raekwon.

What are some other future plans for the label? Any new bands or records in the working? 

Yeah next month, we will release VOW OF HATRED full-length! This will be the heaviest stuff heavy!! Original PAHC style. Please check on myspace. Also we are supporting many hardcore/metalcore bands in the world through RETRIBUTION NETWORK. Please check store and we can shipping to any country if you want. Also we would love to distribute to the world so please contact me if you can help distributing our titles. Trade/wholesale is ok!
