Raw, angry hardcore punk from Barcelona as Irreal brutally fuse punk and metal in the best traditions of Discharge and Finnish hardcore.
Raging Spanish / Catalan vocals spat across distorted metallic guitars, with lyrics exploring the band’s anarchist politics. This record sounds primitive in the best sense of the word, but this should not be confused with simplistic – each of these songs is a well-honed sonic explosion.
Following up their 2020 EP, Barcelona’s IRREAL delivers eight troglodyte anthems of radical hardcore punk. Borrowing heavily from the Hear Nothing era DISCHARGE and echoing equally Suomi classics DESTRUKTIONS/ MELLAKKA and AOQ demo era CRO-MAGS, IRREAL creates a maelstrom of hypnotic feedback. Era Electrónica Catalan and Spanish anarchist lyrics bind the band’s primitive sonic assault, delivering a modern hardcore punk record without an ounce of modern attitude. Punk as it is meant to be; nasty, aggressive, political, and uncompromising.
