I.B.R. - 019: SETE STAR SEPT - KAAMA-DHAATU 3"

REVIEW FROM N.Z.'S SCANNER ZINE

COFFEE RAGE/ SICK/TIRED - Mad Blasts Of Chaos Vol. 2 {Idoneum Bello} This noxious 11-track 7" should come with a health warning! From the opening squelch of feedback that heralds COFFEE RAGE’s ‘Never Restrictions’, you find yourself in a world of hellacious Hardcore, inflammable thrash (that a disease??!) and explosive Crust-tinged Punk. New Zealand’s COFFEE RAGE pummel with seven tracks that borrow heavily from ‘Why’era DISCHARGE while throwing in the sounds of KAAOS/ RIISTETYT Finnish Punk to create thrashing, convulsive HC. Highlight lays in ‘Passing Shot At The Jesus Kids’, although the disdain of ‘Avalanche Of Shit’ comes a close second. Yanks SICK/TIRED belch up four tracks that some how mangle early CORROSION OF CONFORMITY ‘core, the unhinged craziness of IRON LUNG and MISERY’s corrosive Crust to make something intense, scornful and gut wrenching. As with all Idoneum Bello releases I’ve seen, this comes in an excellent sleeve complete with inserts. Blazing stuff; the House Of Scanner cat, in his eagerness to escape COFFEE RAGE’s Dischargian wail, first defecated on the carpet and then launched itself at the neighbour’s Pit Bull. And the cat tore the fucker to shreds with this baby acting as the soundtrack. Intense? You fucking betcha! (09.09.10)

SICK/TIRED - HIGH LIFE 12" OUT ON TO LIVE A LIE!

DeKalb's SICK/TIRED have released their 1st full-length on TO LIVE A LIE RECORDS (it was supposed to be released on COALITION RECORDS but COALITION has gone belly up). as I was a little bit involved in putting out their debut split 7" my opinion could be seen as a bit prejudiced... anyway, believe it or not the 12", which is called HIGH LIFE is a fucking ripper! I knew that already before I got a physical copy of the record cause the tracks were all recorded in the same session than the 4 tracks on the split 7" and Kirk had sent the whole session my way quite some time ago and which lead to their appearance in the MAD BLASTS OF CHAOS series. the 12" is available in 3 different colors: black, red (ltd. to 100 copies) and gray (ltd. to 22 copies). as you can see on the pics below Kirk was kind enough to send me one of the 22 gray copies. as I haven't seen a physical copy on red I don't know if the red ones also come with a certificate like that you can see below which came with my gray one. the artwork of the cover and the inlay is also totally rad! seriously, in my opinion SICK/TIRED are one of the best bands around right now and if you like your HARDCORE fast and furious you should do yourself a favor and get yourself a copy of HIGH LIFE! you can check out one track here.

SICK/TIRED - 12 TRACK DEMO

Kirk will probably hate me for this post but I just can't resist temptation! I recently stumbled across the SICK/TIRED 12 track demo on a blog that Kirk refused to send me cause it is so poorly recorded. well, I don't know if it's poorly recorded or if it's just the poor 128 k/bits rip but if you click on the pic you can d/l it and decide for yourself!

A NEW SPLIT

FUCK YOGA REC. and I.B.R. are sharing a flier. click to enlarge!

and here's another review of the MAD BLASTS OF CHAOS VOL. II split 7" taken from TROUBLE ON YOUR SYSTEM:

So, no download link this time...only my two cents on why this 7" rules and why you should snag a copy immediately. This is the second installment in the Mad Blasts of Chaos series released by Idoneum Bello Records, featuring two killer bands...Sick/Tired from the states (Illinois to be exact) and Coffee Rage from New Zealand. Sick/Tired serve up 4 vicious tracks of raging fast thrash/hardcore and feature ex-members of several other top notch bands including MK-Ultra, Right to Remain, Exalted and Weekend Nachos to name a few. Coffee Rage, who share members with Gawj and Asscharger, keep the momentum rolling with 7 tracks of raw and energetic hardcore. Seriously, both bands kill their side with fast and gritty guitar execution and punishing vocals...not letting up for a single second. Anyways, if my word isn't enough to spark your interest...check out the tracks posted on Sick/Tired's MySpace page (a few of which can be found on this split), and also check out Coffee Rage's 8 track demo CD-R released back in '07 here. Copies available on clear and black vinyl (not sure how many of each), and also comes with a bunch of extra goodies pictured below.

THE 1st COFFEE RAGE & SICK/TIRED SPLIT 7" a.k.a. MAD BLASTS OF CHAOS VOL. II REVIEW

Sick/Tired rocks on the flip side of punk/metal collaboration

By CONNOR RICE

Last updated on 08/26/2009 at 10:35 p.m.

Sick/Tired 4/5 stars
Coffee Rage 2.5/5 stars

The history of punk rock music is laden with bands that, unable to afford putting out a record themselves, seek out another band to split the costs and resulting album with.

DeKalb punk/metal band “Sick/Tired” was recently fortunate enough to do just that, recording a split seven-inch vinyl record with New Zealand punk band “Coffee Rage.” Assembled by Idoneum Bello Records from Germany, “Sick/Tired” and “Coffee Rage” have managed to collaborate on one of the best records to have a local band’s name on it in a long time.

The first side of this record is by “Sick/Tired.” Formed only last year, this is the group’s first time on record. These guys may get lumped into the “grindcore” or “powerviolence” subcategories of music, but apparently refuse to limit themselves to just one label.

In just four blistering tracks, the band proves that short and simple songs can have just as much of an impact as any double-album rock opera. By laying on plenty of R-rated lyrics, and alternating between furious thrash metal and slow, catchy jams, “Sick/Tired” has managed to put together a hook-filled record that sets them far apart from their often untalented peers. This side is perfect for people with short attention spans and a taste for intense music.

“Coffee Rage” from New Zealand is the band on the flip side of this record. Formed in 2007, broken up by late 2008, and re-formed earlier this year, the band contributed a seven-song long attack to this venture. Loaded with non-stop drumbeats and depressing yet comical lyrics, these recordings yield a solid effort of no real note. The band does not try to re-invent the wheel, but they do what they do and they do it well.

The first track, “Never Restrictions”, set the bar fairly high for the rest of the songs. Sadly, they only reach that peak, never moving past it and often only imitating it. The first few listens prove to be enjoyable, but it soon feels like it’s time to move on. The clever wordplay in the lyrics only maintains its novelty for so long without catchy riffs to back them up.

Overall, this record was pretty great. “Sick/Tired” delivers an amazing onslaught of riff-heavy hardcore punk that should have taken up the whole record, while “Coffee Rage”, though talented, fail to make any real impression on the listener. If you like fast, raging punk and metal (and own a record player), check out their myspace at http://www.myspace.com/sicktiredthrash to get more info on how to obtain a record.
