Gasket – Refuse to be Drained – Review

Gasket

Refuse to be Drained
by Tim Den

Generic new school hardcore at its most generic. “Let’s see how many times we can rewrite the same song!” Once, twice, three times… hey wait, here’s yet another breakdown! And, of course, here comes the obligatory fast part. After all, what’s a breakdown if you don’t have a fast part to breakdown from? But let’s not forget that, tempos aside, one will and shall not violate the first rule of generic HC: don’t ever play anything besides D-tuned chugs. It might go right over the audience’s heads.
