PRESIDENT FETCH

 

I'm not going to dissect PRESIDENT FETCH. I made some sonic comparisons when I posted their tracks from Pass The Elixir a couple of years ago, but mostly these Danes don't sound like anything else. If this demo had dropped a few years earlier I feel like the cool kids would be crawling over themselves and (rightly) referring to the back-to-back-to-back "Bestial" into "Ill Dog" into "Police Crime" as one of the high points in European hardcore punk. Maybe '87 was just too late, or maybe the LPs are far enough removed from hardcore that the cool kids just never bothered digging deeper....but there are few bands who put this much snotty punk into their hardcore, and PRESIDENT FETCH don't sound like anyone else.
