Septic Tank (projet des ex-membres de Cathedral et du leader de Repulsion)

[Everflow]

Ce groupe existe depuis pas mal d'années, il avait déjà sorti un EP avant le split de Cathedral, et s'apprête à finir son premier album :

SEPTIC TANK, the long-running project featuring vocalist Lee Dorrian (CATHEDRAL), guitarist Gary Jennings (CATHEDRAL) and bassist Scott Carlson (REPULSION), has completed work on its debut album, "Rotting Civilisation". The disc, which was recorded and mixed by producer/engineer Jaime Gomez Arellano at Orgone Studios, will be released on April 13, 2018 via Rise Above Records.

"Rotting Civilisation" will feature 21 raging tracks of "metallic hardcore thrash." The band's musical influences range from HELLHAMMER, DISCHARGE, SLAUGHTER through to MOTÖRHEAD, TANK, SEPTIC DEATH, SIEGE, CRUCIFIX, BATTALION OF SAINTS and many more of the musicians' favorites from early to mid-'80s.

Earlier this year, Lee stated about SEPTIC TANK's musical approach: "SEPTIC TANK actually does have some very fast tracks, as well as the more general DISCHARGE kind of speed."

Originally formed in 1994 as a side-project of CATHEDRAL, SEPTIC TANK played a gig in London, U.K. on May 3, 2013 as an opening act for REPULSION and NECROPHAGIA.

SEPTIC TANK released a four-song EP in 2013.

SEPTIC TANK is:

* Lee Dorrian (CATHEDRAL, NAPALM DEATH, WITH THE DEAD) - Vocals
* Gary Jennings (CATHEDRAL, ACID REIGN, DEATH PENALTY) - Guitar
* Scott Carlson (CATHEDRAL, REPULSION) - Bass
* Jaime Gómez Arellano (CATHEDRAL, DĀM, BLUTVIAL) - Drums

Tout le détail :

SEPTIC TANK, the long-running project featuring vocalist Lee Dorrian (CATHEDRAL), guitarist Gary Jennings (CATHEDRAL) and bassist Scott Carlson (REPULSION), will release its debut album, "Rotting Civilisation", on April 13 via Rise Above Records.

If ever there were a point in history that demanded angry, scathing, explosive music, then this is it. With eerie-but-exhilarating echoes of Reagan's '80s and the bilious, hyper-aggressive hardcore punk scene that erupted in response, the world of 2018 is more than ready for the blistering return of SEPTIC TANK. This band of weather-beaten underground veterans have existed since the early '90s, more as a whispered enigma than a full-time band, but the decisive moment of deafening reality has arrived with the unveiling of "Rotting Civilisation", the first full-length SEPTIC TANK record and the ugly, rampaging rebirth of the subversive hardcore spirit.

Originally formed in 1994 as a low-key outlet for doom metal standard bearers CATHEDRAL's love for DISCHARGE, SIEGE and other pioneering hardcore luminaries, SEPTIC TANK's original lineup featured Dorrian, Jennings and drummer Barry Stern (ex-TROUBLE) alongside Carlson. A handful of jaw-shattering, snot-spraying anthems were swiftly thrown together and the impromptu crew jammed together on a few occasions, but thanks to a combination of logistics, geography and life getting in the way, SEPTIC TANK lay dormant for nearly two decades.

"We talked about doing it again many times, but it took us 20 years to make a record," Dorrian explains. "BLACK SABBATH were doing their so-called last-ever show in Birmingham and Scott wanted to come over for that, so I suggested we got together and did an album while he was here," Lee recalls. "He stayed over for five days. 14 of the songs were already roughly written but not rehearsed, another eight or so came up on the spot and were recorded straight away, and that was it. It took us over 20 years but I'm really happy we did it."

With all the vitality and venom we demand from the best hardcore, "Rotting Civilisation" is an obscenely thrilling rollercoaster ride that takes in everything from numerous bursts of flagrant DISCHARGE worship ("Walking Asylum", "Victimised") to MOTÖRHEAD-style snot'n'roll ragers ("Divide And Conk Out", "Digging Your Own Grave"), FROST-fuelled doomcore ("Death Vase", "Living Death") and even a skewed homage to Japanese punk legends G.I.S.M. ("You Want Some?"). Musically diverse but unrelenting in its belligerence, it's also an album full of brutally direct declarations on the state of the world today, the idiocy of the social media age and the general stupidness and selfishness of humanity in the 21st century. With his incensed worldview vividly reflected in artist Stewart Easton's idiosyncratic cover art, Dorrian has never written with such sledgehammer accuracy or righteous fury.

No longer a shadowy side-project that existed more in the minds of its participants than in the ears of the masses, SEPTIC TANK has blossomed — or, perhaps, mutated — into one of the most invigorating musical fists to the face of our times. The perfect soundtrack to the collapse of society, "Rotting Civilisation" proves that legends never die, the best ideas are always worth another go and, above all, we the people will not go fucking quietly.
