Jackal: S/T 7"
Rough, tough, and raw as hell. Jackal arrive with a 4-song 45 of pounding and classic-sounding USHC, direct from south Florida. Comparable to over-before-they-start thrashers like White Cross, Violent Children, and YDI. Mixed and mastered at Side Two.Ā
Our take: After an earlier demo (which we still have in stock as Iām writing this), Floridaās Jackal deliver their debut vinyl on Painkiller, and it is a total rager. Itās fitting that Jackal share their name with YDIās frontman, because this 7ā has a similar quality to the blind rage-out that is that bandās legendary A Place in the Sun EP. The recording is super raw (with audible tape his between the tracks), but somehow this doesnāt dilute the bandās power. The drums are full of that analog crunch, which accentuates how Jackal can move from a Negative Approach-style ripping part to a punky riff that reminds me of the first 86 Mentality EP to a blistering, hyper-speed convulsion a la Straight Ahead. The record doesnāt have an ounce of fat and itās over before you know it. Highly recommended if you ride for the early 80s USHC sound.
