Drawing influences from the early DC scene (ala 1981), the music of course has a very familiar feel to it, that will keep you re-listening to this over and over again." (From: http://www.ebullition.com/Xgloom.html) "Something has to be said for a band that gets the sound so right that it puts them in the leagues of their influences while you're listening to it. Recorded in 2000, these 14 songs (yes, theres a hidden track) are a perfect reaction against the metal-ization of most hardcore. The Japanese band Total Fury had an obvious pre-occupation with D.C. hardcore circa 1981. From the ultra-trebly guitar tone and simplistic drumming to the breakneck, yet melodic riffs, they definitely nailed it. The breakdowns are not metal whatsoever, and the vocals are not screamed, but enthusiastically shouted. The heaviest influence understandably coming from Minor Threat, songs like Youre Too Old give more resemblance to the mid-tempo crunch of the Untouchables, and the riff changeups recall Bad Brains at their fastest."

| ______________________________ [May 4,2007 12:56am - Lamp ""] This show couldn't have possibly been any better. The turnout wasn't terribly high, but all the bands destroyed, time was short in between sets, lots of circle pits, high jumps, and sing alongs, a killer bean burrito from the Taquiera, and a cover of Minor Threat's Filler to top it all off. If every show was like this, I'd be the happiest man alive. |
