***Hailing from Oakland, California, THE NEW FLESH delivers driving, melodic dark post-punk with the speed and aggression of hardcore. These somber but upbeat songs deal with issues of the personal, political and an intersection of both: alienation within the context of capitalism. Featuring members of NEO PISS, DESKONOCIDOS, and VAASKA.

***Oakland's THE NEW FLESH’s LP Reality is dark, aggressive and melodic. It draws from circumstances such as anxiety, uneasiness and the disconnectedness as a result from over stimulation. It has eight contagious songs that range from the prodding moodiness of early Killing Joke to the melancholic pop of early New Order. It is driving and punk and manages to escape the trappings of certain revivalist bands that The New Flesh are often compared to. There are layers of melodies that require several listens to fully appreciate beyond the instant hooks. Features members of NEON PISS, DESKONOCIDOS, VAASKA and HOMEOWNERS. Pressed on marbled vinyl.
LP $13.50
