Radiopuhelimet

Hygiene ‎(Alternative Tentacles)
by Joshua Brown

For those familiar with hardcore from Northern Europe, this is fairly standard fare. Radiopuhelimet are from Finland, and would be a good introduction for people interested in foreign hardcore. The guitars are of the buzzsaw variety and the vocals are gargled with the accent one would expect from a Finnish guy with spiked hair. The lyrics are in Finnish, but are translated on the back sleeve. My favorite line: “When it’s a question of survival, you can wipe your ass with your option stock holdings.”
