The Varukers - How Do You Sleep?



These Veterans of the UKHC scene - The Varukers have changed their sound for the better in this "How Do You Sleep?" CD that was released under Go-Kart Records in November 2000. Contains 12 tracks of old school of angry punk as The Unseen, but this band sounds more hardcore and a little darker. Socio-political messages in songs like "Gun Crazed Kids" and "Modem For Destruction" are set off wonderfully by the fierce and angry feel of this entire disc. This is mayhem music. Manages to be raw, ruthless drumming upfront in the mix with super overdriven guitar work, tighter riffs.The sound of the recording is superb.They have left some of their crust¨sound in favour of a more metalic hardcore punk one (nothing wrong with the previous sound,though)which will please more music(rather than noise) oriented listeners without dissapointing their older fans. So, if you're dealing with lyrics that tells alot about socio political issue or nuclear affairs things and all at once you want to be kicked in the ass with some old school hardcore punk beat, this one is directly for you!
