AVITACION 101


This tape is an absolute stunner. Uruguays's AVITACION 101 capture the power of '90s personally driven hc/crust and the European bands of the same era that started venturing into chaotic emotional territory (so basically I'm saying it's like AKEPHAL crossed with LOGICAL NONSENSE). The guitars are positively screaming throughout with discordant leads soaring over the top, but the vocals are the focal point of the recording. High end impassioned screams that remind me more than a little bit of Mariam (PERMANENT RUIN, CONDENADA) are backed sporadically with low crust growls, but those lead vocals will pierce you and hold you like a vice. Listening to this will sound like stepping into a time warp for some, but for others it will open a door.
