Confrontation…Activism… Militant viewpoints put to music. That’s Earth Crisis.
Recently relocated its American office from Los Angeles to New York City, independent label I Scream Records is excited to announce the re-release of Earth Crisis ‘Breed The Killers’ to hit the street and internet on November 4 in the US and November 7th in Europe, Insert blurb on bonus tracks.
“Our revolution is real, it’s radical,” states vocalist Karl Buechner. “There’s n o empty sloganeering.”
Haling from Syracuse, NY, Earth Crisis is heavy hardcore taken to a new level, it’s a steely combination of technical chops and bilious ferocity. “On Breed the Killers I think we achieved the most honest representation of our sound without sounding too raw or too slick,” says drummer Dennis Merrick.
It’s a militancy that’s made Earth Crisis controversial and misunderstood, insightful and inciting and Breed the Killers takes that scorched-earth policy to a nother level.
