Description
Wet Specimens – “Over Pale Bodies” LP
The first album for these Albany, New York dark-punks. “Like if Integrity decided to fight Christian Death in a pit and the last standing members shook hands and formed a band”… is roughly accurate, but it doesn’t convey the wild, ugly, fucked-up-ness of the overall sound… add some Japanese hardcore fury and the atmospheric melodies of early Adolescents and TSOL – influences that help elevate this above the reverb and distortion of your standard old school crasher crust.
