Wrangler Brutes - Zulu (Kill Rock Stars) Thundering, wild, swaggering early 90’s styled punk ‘ala Victim’s Family, Trenchmouth & a little bit of 80’s hardcore like Circle Jerks or Really Red. Politicial and sometimes surreal lyrics.
((((1)))) AC/DC -like cycling guitar lines, thudding bass, loud vocals.
((((2)))) Off-kilter, tempos jump around. Awesome vocals.
(((3)))) AVOID-TOO MANY FCCs!
((((4)))) Starts like the DKs “Holiday In Cambodia” but goes in a more slower punk/hardcore direction. (FCC “BULLSHIT”)
(((((5)))) Fast & to the point hardcore.
((((6))))) Lots of wild stop/starts, lots of weird lyrics.
(((((7))))) Black Flag + Fear x Victims Family = Awesome!
8) AVOID TOO MANY FCCS!
(((9))) Goofy punk silliness, fast to mid-paced, lots of lyrical babbling,
((((10)))) Great drumming, driving hardcore with flaying guitar breakdowns. Only 0:28 seconds
(((11))) Simple, bursting hardcore-like with tons of stop/starts. A scant 30 seconds.
(((12))) Weird, obsessed vocals fits perfect with the lyrics. Burly hard rockin’ stuff (FCCs “SHIT” sung twice).
(((13))) Fast, heavily foucsed on the vocals, nice simple riffs.
(((14)))) Swaggering, driving tempos, very much like the Minutemen.
(((15))) Big drums, slow & steady hard rock/hardcore mix.
16) AVOID! TOO MANY FCCs!
((((17)))) Slow, vocal laden then fast boogie (?) punk with funny story in lyrics.
((((18)))) Fast, mixes 80’s & early 90’s styles of hardcore.
