Beating on ears, mugging the senses, and corrupting the psyche, The Hits Just Keep On Coming is a punk metal violation which just keeps coming. Unleashed by US antagonists Crack House, the EP is a corrosive brawl of crossover ferocity bringing hardcore punk, crust and thrash in on a tempestuous and belligerent dirt caked rock ‘n’ roll rampage. It is not for the faint hearted or those with a nervous disposition, nor those wanting frills and extravagant excesses to their sounds, but for ruinous and degenerate metal punk animosity, this is one EP well worth being ravaged by.
Featuring members of Eat The Turnbuckle, Javelina, Call The Paramedics, and Bitchslicer, Crack House has no redeeming features to its character and everything riveting in punk bred hellishness. From its opening track, also called Crack House, the band is roaring, abusing, and providing an unrelenting and blistering incitement which beneath its scourge of a surface has a maelstrom of riffs, hooks, and enterprise giving each onslaught’s depravity depth and weight. The first song flings abrasing riffs and vocal causticity at ears as soon as it’s opening brief skit sets the scene. Thumping rhythms are just as full of enmity, every swipe a resonating punch entwined in either a tempest of varied vocal squalling or a sonic whipping of guitar. With thrash and grind just as vocal as punk in the rabid stomp, the song makes a formidable entrance to the release, an opening taking to rawer destructive heights by This Emergency Room Is Gonna Need A Fucking Emergency Room.
The second song has fear and juices flowing from the first rumble of rhythms, the drum’s wanton bait soon joining an opening sonic coaxing. In no time the track becomes a contagious and violent seducing of ears and passions, leading the senses into a visceral landscape which could be described as Motorhead meets Hellbastard at a brawl organise by The Exploited. Grooves spray venom and beats destruction yet the heavy metal spiced sonic insidiousness which veins the storm is almost inviting in its resourcefulness. It is an anthemic intrusion, a description fitting most tracks on the EP, and especially the following title track. Again launched on a torrent of rhythmic contagion, the track smothers the senses in a wave of defiling sonic adventure whilst the rhythms increasingly feel like they sense blood as every scything swing comes with greater rancor to match the increasing bile in the vocal delivery.
Without quite matching its predecessor, the song still ignites ears and emotions impressively as does the briefer animus of Junkie Fucker. It is pure hate and defiance in one accusing sonic fury which leaves ears and emotions ringing as it makes way for the final grudge, March Of The Crackhead. Metal and punk collude here to provide a senses scorching, psyche bruising squall which is as irresistible as it is intimidating. Grooves and hooks are ridiculously addictive whilst the rhythms find new and greater bait in their armoury, building a song which is a total seduction even as it violates your veins and steals your sanity.
The Hits Just Keep On Coming leaves a real hunger for more by its end. You will feel dirty and violated from the encounter but certainly for hardcore/thrash lusting fans more than likely will breed a real appetite and addiction for sound and band that just will not go away.
