NEW RELEASES FROM ADULT CRASH RECORDS

OUT OF STOCK -  AC#70 AXE RASH "Contemporary Ass" E.P.
... Nothing less. 5 new bangers from Stockholm HARDCORE power house Axe Rash! Frantic to say the least. This is the elephant in the china shop - with a baseball bat.

 

OUT OF STOCK - AC#71 RUIDOSA INMUNDICIA "Ira" 12"
This is something we've been talking about for longer than I care to remember - so I can't tell you how happy I am to finally have this here.
Long time friends + one of the most fantastic HC/Punk bands in Europe over the past many years.
This, their first full 12" has 12 to-the-point songs of anger, injustice and RAGE!!!

 

OUT OF STOCK -  AC#72 PLANET Y "En Plads i Solen" LP
This is some of the catchiest shit I've heard in a long time. I've played the mp3s and the test press to shreds already.
13 songs of despair yet with a glimmer of hope and some desperate lyrical content, that I wish you all could understand. This is surely the spirit of Copenhagen.

 

OUT OF STOCK -  AC#73 THE WAR GOES ON "Discount Hope" E.P.
Going back more than 20 years with the main songwriter in TWGO, this might be one of the catchiest tunes he's written to date.
So bleak and alienated. This E.P. offers 4 new songs that should whet the appetite for a proclaimed 3rd album in the making. I for one can't wait.

JALANG "Santau" LP Available Soon

 Jalang (formerly Lái) play fast-paced and danceable D-beat punk, propelling the band’s ferocious vocals into the face of the listener. Vocalist Alda’s lyrics are delivered in Bahasa Indonesia and English, engaging with both her own and collective narratives that explore politics, religion, feminism and queer rights in South East Asia, and the diaspora in so-called Australia. Timmy (Extinct Exist, Pisschrist, Schifosi) on guitar and Tessa (Ubik, Masses) on bass were joined by Kyle (Sheer Mag) on drums in 2021.

"Jalang" in Bahasa Indonesia is one of those ‘odd’ words: when describing the masculine it means wild, feral, undomesticated; while for feminine figures it translates as promiscuous, slutty or evil — something the band aims to reclaim as a mark of feminine pride. Jalang invokes the band members’ diasporic and queer narratives through hardcore punk, mixing ideas and personal experiences that often inter-connect but also continue to conflict with the world around us.

Recorded by Jason Fuller (Goatsound) at Tender Trap Studios in Melbourne, Santau is 11 tracks of incandescent punk energy from this supergroup of Melbourne underground music, tackling real world issues of politics, power and protest. Next-level musical performances, inspirational song writing and the relentless fury of Alda’s vocals combine to produce one of the most intelligent, crucial and viscerally exciting Australian punk releases in years.

JALANG are: Alda (Vocals), Timmy (Guitar & Vocals), Tessa (Bass) & Kyle (Drums)

Recorded & Mixed by Jason Fuller (Goatsound) at Tender Trap Studio
Mastered by Jack Control at Enormous Door
Artwork by Alda (Deliriousinkarts) & Micah James (Scrawnart)
