Цитата:
Leather 'Anchorite' 7" (CC001)
"Mid-paced Black Flag tempo with good riffing, talented drumming and just the right number of stops and starts. By the time the locked-groove ending of “Anchorite” hits, it’s hard to not be at least a little impressed.
These four tracks offer a distinct and somewhat unique sound, although remaining firmly grounded in the hardcore punk echelon. Their advantage is mainly due to the voice of Alex Agran, who, when not using a wounded-dog scream, actually kind of sings. It genuinely connects Leather’s sound to classic hardcore punk (I’m thinking the American Youth Report compilation for reference), as Agran’s voice recalls a classic Keith Morris or Alec Mackaye, not one of today’s muffled and distorted dime-a-dozen hardcore screamers. “Prince of the Salon” takes that voice to its most intense degree, almost to an off-putting level, but a similar sensation was probably felt the first time anyone heard Darby Crash." -www.yellowgreenred.com
Цитата:
This tape was introduced to me as "heavy negative-filled noise pollution from Philadelphia" and the tag is pretty appropriate. Unsurprisingly, this Philly-based band contains members who claim the Rust Belt as their bloodland. Leather plays dirty, grungy, pseudo-hardcore punk shit that sounds like some of the more well-known bands from the area (Pissed Jeans, Fresh Meat, etc.), only a little harder. Truthfully, I'm not so well-versed in the whole dilapidated, ex-industrial city scene of PA's music, so I'm probably just talking out of my ass.
Bunk-ass descriptions aside, this demo is really fucking good. For the past week, I've found myself listening to this over and over. The vocals thoroughly creep me out and the frenetic feel of the music makes me feel scummy. I actually had a friend of a roommate knock on my door and ask me what the fuck I was listening to before walking off and muttering about how I listened to terrible music. It's THAT good.
