DEATH IS NOT GLAMOROUS




DEATH IS NOT GLAMOROUS – UNDERCURRENTS CD (D&G025)
This has been out a while, but is still available and they are a great band, so hey. From Oslo, Norway, a country that has given birth to many great and wonderful bands and DEATH IS NOT GLAMOROUS follows suit with this inspiring tradition. 6 songs (1 extra song, compared to the 7” release of it) of fast, upbeat, catchy and tuneful hardcore. They are pretty melodic, in a good way, but the extra crunch in their playing gives them a more hardcore vibe. The vocals pretty much set them apart from a lot of hardcore bands, in that the really good and sung with passion. I just keep thinking of 7 SECONDS, SHELTER, TURNING POINT. Along with the wonderful tunes are thoughtful lyrics, that more than anything give inspiration to get up, be yourself and not worry what others think. Absolutely fabulous.
