125, Rue Montmartre & Maggat - Split


[No cover]


Old emo music from Germany!
125, Rue Montmartre was a female-fronted indie/emo band from Bielefeld/Germany that existed from ca. 1998-2000. They released a split 7” with Maggat (now The Robocop Kraus) in 1999 and a self-titled 7” in 2000. Apart from that, they appeared on two compilations: the Ageha 7” and the Achtung Autobahn CD. Very dulcet sound!
Maggat was formed in 1997. They created a kind of music quite comepareable to their split-partner, but more noisy. After a 7'' in 1997 they also released a full-length in 1999.

125, Rue Montmartre:
01. Hit #2
02. Steigerungslied
Maggat:
03. An urban dilemma
04. Kiss the boys goodbye

Unquiet - This is darkness descended


"First full lengh of this Berlin based band. Midtempo-D-Beat-Hardcore would descripe their music at its best without dropping in another rooster of "sounds like..." bands... these folks struggle hard to create something of their own and you can hear it. Nothing really new but still manage to grap my fully attention and looking forward seeing them live... hopefully. Artwork is rather nice too! Recommended!"
Released on 'Behind the scenes', 'Synalgie Records' and 'Contraszt! Records'.

The Rorschach Tragedy - Death of butterflies Part I


One-man screamo band! "What did Austin Rafter do right after film school? He moved from Manhattan back to his hometown in the Seattle suburbs and started his own solo screamo/post-core outfit, The Rorschach Tragedy, in the fall of 2007. After recording some demos by himself in a rehearsal studio, he made his way into a real studio and recorded his debut EP, Death of Butterflies (Part 1), with Robert Cheek (Tera Melos, RX Bandits). “This is just the first step in a journey of a thousand miles.” Look forward for some new songs in the very near future."

Seasick - Awakenings


"Seasick play fast pissed off political hardcore with plenty of twists and turns to keep me interested. There are some nice little breakdowns and some Integrity-like guitar solos. It reminds me a little bit of the stuff that Ebullition was hawking in the mid 90's but a lot more fun and catchy. I could see kids that use their dogs as pack mules getting into this band. Punk fucking rock."

Manrae - Pacata Hibernia + Unreleased songs


"Manrae came out of England like a shooting star; blink and they were gone. They released three tracks on the Pacata Hibernia 7" and also one track on the Heartattack #10 compilation. The songs have an almost sad or melancholy feel to them and yet they are alive with a very passionate energy. Emotive hardcore from the mid '90s."
