Massgrav – Still the King – Black Vinyl D-Takt & Råpunk Records ‎– DTAKT043 ‎– 2012 – 12″

I guess there are few bands that play so fast that they wear out drummers. With respect of the earlier drummers, Indy and Grind-Ove, both got problems with their wrist after many years of extensive playing – that serious for real. Currently the drummer name is Fenuk. Ola manages bass / vox and Norse guitar / vox.

Swedish (Stockholm) Massgrav has been around since 1996 but did not get serious until 2002. There are a bunch of political correct bands out there – but that has not been the case for Massgrav, more of grumpy old men go hardcore / fastcore / thrashcore. I Love it. The lyrics on the first song Sell Your Hole For Rock N’ Roll go: “Lentils, Cheap Beer and Bedrolls – We don’t wanna play at your shitty festival”. Ha ha.

A couple of the songs was on hyper-limited tape Too fast for Ove, only made in 100 copies on Ljudkassett. This released was pressed in 500 copies, 400 on white vinyl and 100 on black vinyl.

♬ Two first songs (MP3 320 kbps).
