    "The Rare Touch" From Turbo Slaughter

    Review by Kyle Furuta

     

    I hate hardcore music, for the most part. But I love ska, for all its changes throughout history, with a major and semi-obsessive passion. So here, you see, is my dilemna. The band Turbo Slaughter is a kind-of-original fusion of hardcore and ska, or ska-core, as I read up on wikipedia.

    Honestly, one of the only words I could come up with to describe this Slaughter of Turbo is “raw.”  The music often goes from a blaring, interminable noise of disjointed drums and almost screeching guitars, to a revved-up ska sound punctuated with barely discernible vocals.

    Undoubtedly, for someone who does like hardcore, Turbo Slaughter’s EP, is most probably a decent band to get warmed-up to. Many of their lyrics seem to want to communicate to the world that they don’t give a shit. “Shut the fuck up” is repeated many times in at least one song. Not that I’m against such language, but it seems almost meaningless.

    But anyways...that’s all I really have to say.
