English:CD-review
  Van Muylem    26 februari 2023

Brand new EP from Spooky Chicago punkers Won't Stay Dead, Purgatory! Featuring 2 previously unheard tracks from the Purgatory sessions, plus one album track. Comes in a cool 4 panel digipak, with art by Dan P. and Saffron.


What do we get? 3 short, explosive, female fronted punk rock tracks with a nice melody and cool vocals!

New Descent is the first track and the shortest one! I like the bass & the vocals. The roaring and lead guitar halfway are also a cool thing, just as the drummer suddenly hitting hard. The vocals give the song a sweet touch and a melodic drive!

You Will Kill Again is a melodic punk rocker with sweet female vocals and a hard hitting drummer. The song is almost catchy and just misses that extra sparkle to make it sound really great! The breakdown halfway is agreat idea and lifts the song to a higher level.

Nine Guys (No Weapons) starts with a rambling bass and a lead guitar taking off. Once we passed the warming up the tempo goes up and we even get some backings! Don't forget to listen to the end of this one as there is another track hidden towards the end: an up-tempo sweet rocker! It's a cool last blow and a great ending for this short EP! Follow them and enjoy!
