RAAMATTU

 

Classic Finnish hardcore sounds on a steady diet of DROPDEAD and broken glass, every second of RAAMATTU's 2018 debut sounds like it's about to implode. The lone DBeat number "Tradition," which would be the "obligatory mid-paced track in the middle of the record" for any normal band....descends into madness before the band tries desperately to reign it back in. "Ei Oikeutta" does manage to stay slow (or slower) and the result is a dark and damaged COC vibe that burles its way into "Hyväsyntä" and then it's just....over. This is the ugliest seven minutes of your day even, or especially, if you're on your way to work just so you can get fired.
