Subliminal Excess: Witness 7"
From the depths of lower wacker...its the return of Subliminal Excess. With a demo that ushered in the cold reality of 2020, they are keeping that same energy with witness. With the speed and production of hardcore punk but also combined with NYHC aesthetics creates a sound that is reminiscent of RIVAL MOB but lo-fi like their compatriots in SNIPER CULTURE (RIP). This record is truly dedicated to the city of chicago, and you can hear it from the beat of WITNESS.
Our take: 11PM Records released a demo from Chicago’s Subliminal Excess back in 2020, and now they’re back with a four-song EP. Like a few bands on 11PM Records, Subliminal Excess rides the line between early 80s-inspired hardcore and more modern sounds, mixing groovy, Sick of It All-esque parts that make you want to jump up and down (no pogo, jump up and down) with more straightforward bashing, wrapping it up in a raw and fuzzy recording. There’s a little metal in the mix too, including some whammy bar gymnastics that might make you think of a less crazy version of Concealed Blade. As someone who doesn’t enjoy the more polished end of NYHC-influenced music, it’s the best of both worlds for me, the groovy mid-paced parts sticking to your ribs but with the gritty sound and performance keeping it punk.
