One of the latest vinyl reissues from the mysterious black metal duo known as Bone Awl, Not For Our Feet is a nine song album recorded in 2004 which had originally been released on cassette, then reissued on vinyl through Nuclear War Now, and now re-reissued through the band's very own Klaxon imprint. I can't get enough of Bone Awl's raw, blown out blackened punk, and this record serves up some of the most hardcore-tinged jams that we've heard from them, simplistic and thrashing, almost bordering on d-beat style crust at times but unmistakeably black metal in spirit. Songs go from super blown-out Discharge hardcore assaults with blazing primitive two-or-three chord riffs to ferocious blackened blastbeats and messy chaotic guitars, everything distorted and noisy, the harsh screeching vocals dripping strange mystical lyrics. Crude, brutal black thrashscuzz with a relentless approach to hammering their repetitive riffs into your skull like rusted nails, like Bathory and Darkthrone fused with primal UK hardcore in a barbaric cyclone of trance inducing intensity. This new version features a rad monochromatic jacket with all new artwork that looks like it was created through some heavy Xerox abuse, and comes with a photocopied insert sheet that contains all of the lyrics.
