Across Wounded Galaxies sounds like end result of a DIE KREUZEN record produced by SAM MCPHEETERS after they had spent weeks listening to a healthy dose of FRANK ZAPPA AND THE MOTHERS OF INVENTION. It'd be easy to jump and point to the beer soaked cabin fever of midwestern lull from cities like Cleveland, Minneapolis, Detroit or Milwaukee that drive one to the edges of their mind. NASA SPACE UNIVERS (NSU) is from Southern California surprisingly. NSU spews the kind of intense mania that is hellbent on self destruction. Busy bass lines askew from your typical hardcore have a decidedly post punk feel. The guitar has a great noise rock quality. These guys give contemporary hardcore a choke with sincere lunacy and a sound that is different and all their own. It really boils down to a comfortably discordant hardcore record. While it's on my mind, using some contemporary bands, think HOMOSTUPIDS, BILL BONDSMEN and PROTOMARTYR in one package. Getting geeked out for a second this comes with a screen printed cover, hand numbered out of 200.
