PARALLAX SMILE
Bruised Fruit (LP)
Kink Records - 13 €
PARALLAX SMILE are from Groningen/Netherlands and exist since 2019. In the past the band members were active in numerous diy punk/hardcore bands like MAKILADORAS, SUFFERING QUOTA, MUSHROOM ATTACK, FLEAS AND LICE, SYSTEM BASTARD etc. Their 7-song demo was released in 2021 on bandcamp but those recordings are too good to be released digital only, so we had to do a vinyl-pressing. Musically there is a sound strongly influenced by 80s UK anarchopunk with a New Wave / Post Punk touch in the form of a keyboard and political lyrics with female vocals! During the release of this LP, the drummer Maynard (Fleas and Lice, Mushroom Attack etc.) passed away ... gone but not forgotten, rest in punk, dear friend
