| Swedish crust/death-metal unit Industrial Puke have recently shared a music video for a new track off the band’s debut album “Born Into the Twisting Rope” is, which was released in mid-May on Suicide Records. Filmed and edited by Mathias Coulouri, the video for this new track titled “Hell Is In Hello” is now playing at this location. In 2017, with fresh memories of previous musical trials and tribulations, Jens Ekelin (Rentokiller) called out for comrades sharing a love for Disrupt to start a new band. Swiftly Linus Jägerskog (Burst) and Marko Partanen (Rentokiller) both roared out a non-hesitant YES! and off Industrial Puke went. Following a long period of writing music and finding members, Mattias Rasmusson (Obstruktion/Blessings/Gust) and Erik Harald (Rentokiller) completed the line-up and recording ensued. After the band self-released the debut single and video “Mental Taxation” in June 2022, Gothenburg-based Suicide Records offered to work with Industrial Puke. The partnership began with the release of the debut EP “Where Life Crisis Starts” in September 2022. The album shows Industrial Puke honing in on their collective influences from hometown Gothenburg, the Swedish hardcore and death metal-scenes as well as the furious energy of acts like Disrupt, Kontrovers, Drop Dead and Napalm Death. The idea from the get-go was to focus on short straightforward songs and this album leaves little space for contemplation or rest. From the galloping opening in “Mental Taxation” to the raging closer “Innards on the Outside”, every song has its own belligerent identity. There is d-beat mosh on “Reactionary Warfare”, high-velocity crust on “Neurosexist Motherfucker” featuring vocals by Hanna Stjernlöf of Socialstyrelsen, heavy HM-2 groove on “General Gluttony” and relentless death metal in “Hell Is In Hello”. The lyrics deal with issues of self-doubt, conservatism as the new black and feeling out of place in crowds and out of touch with the world. |
