Primer Regimen: 1983 7"
After their debut 7" in 2017 and 1 year after their debut LP in 2018, PRIMER REGIMEN from BogotĆ” (Colombia) are back with 5 new songs under this 7" called 1983. The sound maintains its touch of pure UK82 and OI ! British! but giving this time a little twist to a darker sound. Bass lines are stronger and more present along with more melodic but raw and angry guitar riffs. The drums maintain that UK82 style of fast beats but also combined with a more tribal or British anarchopunk sound. All this while maintaining Dino's raw voice spitting desperate, social and committed lyrics.
Our take: Colombiaās Primer Regimen brings us a new 5-song EP, and while their earlier releases were excellent, 1983 both dials in and expands their sound, arriving at something thatās just as intense but more unique. If you come to 1983 looking for that trademark passion and intensity you hear in so much contemporary Colombian punk, youāll be pleased to know that this record is drenched in itā¦ itās raw, primal, and authentic in a way that so many bands have trouble capturing on tape. However, Primer Regimen augments that intensity with a refined stylistic approach here. Primer Regimen has two basic modes on 1983: a churning, tom-heavy anarcho mode that reminds me of Killing Joke or early Amebix (i.e. when Amebix was at their most Killing Joke-ish) and a sprightlier UK82 mode. These two approaches work together to build and release tension throughout the record. Itās particularly effective on the last two tracks, where the slow burn of āPlegariaā erupts into the energetic āParĆ”sitos,ā which itself climaxes with an unexpectedly melodic guitar riff in the chorus. A really excellent record.
