Quarantine: Exile 12"
Quarantineâs sophomore LP Exile is like taking a mystery pill and hopping in the back of your friendâs older brotherâs Honda Civic while This Is Boston Not LA is blaring from the stereo. The Groinoids track is about to end and youâre getting a chub wondering if the FUâs or these drugs are going to hit you first. Sure the skills of Sheer Magâs own Hart Seely making the drums scream, Career Suicideâs Jonah Falco knowing how to properly mix hardcore punk and the dark master magic conjured by extreme music wizard Arthur Rizk is all there but when combined with the âunconventionalâ nature of the bandâs recording abilities you get a unique and haunted slab you wonât find anywhere else. If you love United Mutation, Repulsion, Jerryâs Kids, the Cavalera brothers, Black Sabbath, weird shit and/or Guinness you should probably pick this one up. 8 tracks, 45 RPM, La Vida Es Un Mus, Damage United, what more do you really need? -Lee Medmer
Our take: One of my favorite contemporary hardcore bands, Philadelphiaâs Quarantine, returns with their second 12â. Quarantine emerged as such a fully formed beast that it shouldnât be surprising that not much has changed between Agony and Exile. Quarantineâs music is still firmly rooted in blistering 80s hardcore like Negative Approach, Agnostic Front, and Jerryâs Kids, but played by musicians much more seasoned and technically capable than the ones who made those early 80s records. Quarantine takes the unpredictable lunges of Victim in Pain and hones them to samurai blade sharpness, the sound anchored by virtuoso drummer Chris Ulsh, whose playing has a downright supernatural combination of deftness and power. The main difference I hear between Exile and its predecessor is that, this time around, there are fewer of the psychedelic-sounding, United Mutation-esque lead guitar parts I loved on Agony, with the guitars joining the rhythm section in their single-minded pursuit of relentlessness. Jock also remains a larger-than-life frontperson on Exile, his bark creeping in and out of legibility, rendering his bleak lyrics even darker and stranger. The between-song instrumental interludes also return, ranging from maximalist industrial to a creepy and minimal electro-acoustic-style piece. If Agony and Exile are the first two installments in an Out Cold-style discography that keeps going and going with no letup, that would be fine by me.
