Tarantüla

The Very Best Of Sex And Violence

Deranged

The Very Best Of Sex And Violence is the third vinyl installment from Chicago’s Tarantüla with five new glorious hardcore punk tracks. For those unfamiliar, this band is the reincarnation of Cülo and they play an intoxicating blend of classic punk and meat and potato hardcore.  “While one might consider the idea of catchy, song-oriented hardcore to be completely played out, Tarantüla toe the line between poppy and aggressive so perfectly that their music feels fresh. You can hear the influences quite clearly—the snotty, aggressive punk of bands like the Angry Samoans and Zero Boys, the earnest drive of early '80s midwest hardcore like Articles Of Faith and early Hüsker Dü, and a dash of DEVO / Geza X-style irreverence—but they’re swirled together in a way that’s just different enough from anything I’ve heard before to be noteworthy.” - Daniel from Sorry State Records

Weird Tales Of Radiation And Hate

Deranged

The second EP from Chicago’s Tarantüla, the band featuring former members of Cülo with the additional layer of the always popular bass player. Just as catchy as the aforementioned Cülo, but a little less mid-tempo, and with more obvious classic punk influence. Great jacket art from DrugFace as per usual. Mastered by Geza X, a killer 7-inch.
