Moribund Punishment / Prügelknabe - Split 7"

This is an absolute brite blast in the void of our underground. A split with jazzy fastcore duo Prügelknabe and Japanese punchy powerviolence trio Moribund Punishment. This 7″ is overdosed with aggression and hate; it’s a massive banger of 2025! So, let’s spin it!
Directly from Ostrava (one of the biggest cities of the Czech Republic) Prügelknabe with 11 short but very sharp songs. The boys skillfully juggle with irresistibly catchy thrashy riffs while dual vocalists spit their lungs out. The tracks defy description; this stuff is so messed up, hahah, love it! Despite its chaotic nature, the instrumentation maintains remarkable precision within this whirlwind, while the jazzy pieces deliver an unparalleled performance touch. The balance of tempos, wicked speeds and variety of structures is phenomenal. This music won’t let you breathe, and, in the end, will knock you down!
Side two presents reimagined classics of the powerviolence genre. The music of Moribund Punishmen is pure sonic torture… This stuff is so ferocious that it almost reaches grindcore velocity, I’m speechless. Moribund Punishmen is refining the classic sound of the genre while preserving its brutality and intensity. Each song is drilling your guts and mind with a thousand small bites. Sure thing, you will catch a few familiar riffs and influences, but this material retains and shoots out its own character. The guitar tone is the thing, and the riffage keeps consistently engaging. I have no words this is freaking good work!
Unlike many bands, Prügelknabe and Moribund Punishment are keeping their own way, without cloning famous bands. Check out this split – maximum turbulence guaranteed. (Good Guys Go Grind)
