Description

After an excellent intro Blank are going right at it _ and it is menacing, wicked, dark, nhilistic and fucked up. The atmosphere to this record is seriously grim. Descibing their sound is not easy though: it s heavy without being Metal, slow without being Doom, but also far from ordinary Crustpunk, because there s way too much happening and the tempo doesn t fit. A cathartic juggernaut indeed! So dark and black that I m almost glad that this 12 only contains 4 songs. In terms of quality Blank can keep up with top-notch bands like Birds In Row, Oathbreaker or Rise & Fall. This kind of music is usually referred to as Blackened Crust , and as much as I hate invented genres it s really fitting in this case. Besides Jungbluth Blank are the best and most interesting contemporary German band playing this style…and that says a lot!
