DEATH SENTENCE


Australian hardcore circa 1985, DEATH SENTENCE are too punk to be a thrash band, but the fast parts on these tunes are jaw dropping - especially if you like your fast to be fast. A few of these songs appeared on the CD discography that came out a few years ago on Burrito Records (pulled from a different demo session and the 51st State Of America record) - and they fukkn rip. This is '80s USHC on crack, with reworked NEGATIVE APPROACH and SSD tunes to confirm the comparison, and a 15 minute live set also from '85 on the flipside.

I think the best stuff they recorded is the 51st State tape or the two songs on v/a Not So Lucky Country 2xLP. I'm still trying to locate the unreleased 2nd LP. Apparently the guy from Sadistik Exekution did the sleeve art for the unreleased LP, needle crucifix or some such madness.
