Real Life Version - Resistance from within

Real Life Version - Resistance from within, 2009 Slovenia Evelyn Records, 2009 Punk Rock / Hc (9tracks, 32min, CD~EAC~Lame~Mp3@320kbps, 77MB) Another great home scene product! Very solid album with all components to make it a good one. Nice riffs, some catchy sing-alongs, quality vocal and even lyrics that make sense. CD art is also done very nice and it includes lyrics for all nine songs as well. I will allow myself comparison of their sound with early Hot Water Music or Leatherface. So after some silence on Slovenian punkrock records scene, here is finally an album that is a bright spot for present and future slo-punk. Only thing I can mention as minus, is maybe drums sound, that could be a bit cleaner and more powerful. But after all this is a diy. and it sounds great in general! What can you do to support the band and scene in generally? Go to their MySpace page, order this album that will cost you only few cigarettes packs or few beers. Why? You know how easy it is to loose Mp3s and how good is to actually have a solid album in hands. Also check Real Life Version tour dates on their MySpace (some are listed here to the right under shows). You can also contact them on: reallifeversion@gmail.com Go to the show drink a beer or two, buy an album and enjoy the music they are making for YOU! Download
