Antigama from Warsaw, Poland and Drugs Of Faith from Virginia, USA
team up for a split disc inspired by the Napalm Death / Coalesce
split, In Tongues We Speak. Following in the footsteps of that
bi-national split of grindcore and hardcore, Selfmadegod Records
from Poland is poised to release the Antigama / Drugs Of Faith
split 3"CD on an eager world audience.
The three songs representing Antigama's share of the CD are the
last ones that the band is issuing before the awaited Relapse debut
full-length, Resonance. The quartet turns in two original songs
packed full of its trademark sound and a cover of a classic Goblin
song.
As for Drugs Of Faith, this power trio delivers three new tracks
that offer a taste of what the upcoming full-length on Selfmadegod
may sound like. The band has new surprises up its sleeve, having
churned out spanking new material for this team up with Antigama
that takes its sound further down the road hinted at with the
self-titled mini-album, both musically and lyrically.
Not content to have two bands from the same obvious genres or
sharing the same influences go head to head on a split, as often
happens, Antigama and Drugs Of Faith's individual sounds play
against each other, resulting in a jolt for the listener as the
tracks alternate between the two bands on Selfmadegod's latest
release. The split 3"CD should be a must for fans of either or both
groups. An old hand at steering grindcore in the studio, Szymon
Czech (Nyia, Third Degree, Antigama), has mastered this
double-barrel disc.
