Leather Towel: Natural Disasters
I've really been stuck on this Leather Towel LP lately. Featuring the singer from Ausmuteants, it actually reminds me of the visceral punk of Eddy Current Suppression Ring, but spiked with a liberal dose of American hardcore. The band's mid-paced punk songs and blistering hardcore songs are, miraculously, equally catchy, but "Natural Disasters," the closing track on the LP, is something really special, with that wacky yet infectious twin guitar lead at the end serving as the cherry on top of the delicious sundae that is the rest of the album.
