Problem: Anti-You 7"
"You know what the fuck this is" is description from label?Ā
Sounds like oldschool hardcore.
Limited to 300 copies in the U.S.
Our take: This LA-era band delivers a rock-solid 7-song wallop for their debut EP. While Problem plays straightforward hardcore punk, I love that they arenāt too on the nose stylistically. The singerās gruff style is definitely rooted in oi! (there are even a few shouts of āoi! oi!ā here), but thereās plenty of USHC in the mix too, particularly bands like Fang, the Fuck-Ups, and Sick Pleasure, whose nihilistic and ugly bent is reflected here. Flashes of catchy lead guitar show the bandās SoCal roots and further flesh out the sound. While itās undeniably meat-and-potatoes, those subtle touches keep it sounding fresh while still channeling the classics. And I love that they crammed 7 tracks on here, as it feels like a full helping rather than just a taste. The European pressing of Anti-You is on Mendeku Diskak (Sorry State has the US pressing on Under the Gun Records), and while Anti-You will appeal to people who follow that label, I think plenty of people whose tastes skew more toward 80s US punk will love it too.
