Deaf Club is a savage sound bath dripping with sardonicism: a blastbeat-centric hardcore punk assault channeling crust, thrash, and grind (un)sensibilities. Succinct pauses, surreal frequencies and effects, breakneck pace and sharply hurled vocals characterize the band’s aesthetic, which seems as though it is rooted in a sort of nasty-sound-meets-highbrow-message ethos. Fueled by the onslaught of society’s insanity and driven mad by tinnitus, Justin Pearson (The Locust, Dead Cross, Swing Kids), Brian Amalfitano (ACxDC), Scott Osment (Glassing, Planet B), and Jason Klein (Run With The Hunted), approach music as an opportunity to confront our collective sicknesses. We’ve got to try to listen, lest we all frolic headfirst towards the bright side of death, dragging this pillaged planet down with us. So whether you think the music is a radical disruption to the airwaves or just headache-inducing noise, you can feel free to tell them the brutal truth– they can’t hear you anyway.
The Contemporary Sickness EP has been released digitally as well as on limited edition vinyl through Three One G Records. Mixed and mastered by Brent Asbury. Cover art by Jesse Draxler. Design and layout by Brandon McMinn.
