CONDOMINIUM


Listen to this shit. Minneapolis' CONDOMINIUM were a hardcore band way ahead of the curve when this demo dropped in 2008 - simple and rambunctious with classic USHC vocals and riffs galore. There were two 45s that followed this demo and set the groundwork for a band that has sporadically cranked out some incredibly good records. Four songs here, rawer and more driving than most of their vinyl output, but no less compelling - from a great hardcore demo to a really great guitar driven band. It's music that you understand, but you keep listening because it's good and because it sounds new. Accolades of the highest order.

Members of DOLPHIN and QUESTION, so those who know me know that I was biased before the first note. But I was also not disappointed.
