General Disregard - No Gods, No Music Theory! (2015 Demo)

This was a fun recording that surely wore its influence on its sleeve but had a sound quality and music clarity of its own enough to set it apart. I'm not entirely sure what Fang song the intro was a cover of but it was an easy instrumental to get going. The next track is some unexpected folk fun with a wailing harmonica that I enjoyed a bunch. Was very quick and didn't evolve into much but a rather fun acoustic track to contrast the rest. "White Trash Anthem" begins with a riff noticeably heavier than the first track. I think there's some vocals here but they're incomprehensible. It goes onto slam into a reckless outro of guitar nonsense and blastbeats. Pretty great. "Ultra long titled track 4" continues the heavier guitar tone, I like this one better thanthe last though. "REM with a fuzzbox" employs that acoustic guitar some more for the beginning before the rock band re-initiates. Vocals are still hard to make out but that's fine. This track was very catchy and a great, almost anthemic close to the demo.

All in all some basic punk stuff that might be looking for a little bit of a different identity with catchy folk elements here and there. It has a Pussy Galore reckless noise punk feel as well. With improvement and more musicality in general they could pick up a cool sound for some longer recordings. I'd personally enjoy the folk elements to stay and even expanded upon
