No bullshit crust attack from Gifu, Japan (DARGE) and Southern California (SECRET SECT). DARGE are noisy and full of hissing madness that melts into a wash of cymbal noise but the vocals and the unmistakable Japanese hardcore rhythm show through the white noise and these songs are the perfect metal/punk hybrid, not unlike Tokyo's CROW. On the flip side, SECRET SECT deliver three songs of female fronted politically charged crusty hardcore. The recording is off, and the result is disconcerting but that's why I like it...rough and dirty, and maybe they want to be metal but it's not quite working out just yet.

Secret Sect wins based on their guitar tone and their occasional psych-rock leads. I have another tape by them if you are interested.
