About
HPP
“The sound and feel of the small Northwest town is on HPP's back. Theweird stares, limited options, and cheap beer escapes. They have
crappy hangovers all the time and get loose in the evening listening
to Sly Stone, Harry Partch and P.I. on a tape that will only play the
wrong speed. Eating frozen pizza on their scummed up couches.
Beautiful art. "
An earlier report from this Olympia punk snot factory bore promise, and
it’s come to term – interestingly enough, about nine months later, with
this anonymous-looking record. No URL on the back sleeve, no insert or
lyric sheet, and you’d better recognize the logo above. Inside you get
your head knocked around by basement punk and hardcore, delivered with
plenty of spit and a really nasty disposition. Sample if you will:
“SUICIDE/HOMICIDE / SUICIDE/HOMICIDE / WHAT SHOULD I DO? WHAT SHOULD I
DO?” Guitar is relentless, riffing and hammering no matter how clunky
the tempo, and the vocals and attitude are front and center, the
sentiments hopeless and apathetic yet urgent and. You’ve felt this angry
before, and I’ll bet you it’s happened in the last month – spend the 15
minutes or less it’ll take you to rip through these 15 songs and clench
your fists. I think it’ll help. For fans of Joy Ride-era GI, early Die
Kreuzen, Red Cross, Sex Pistols, and maybe the idea of the Faith, before
you actually heard them and had the fantasy ruined. Perennial keeps its
stock label Spirograph design for a third release, but defers to a
monochromatic color scheme. It’s the most civilized thing about this
record. Best of luck to you.
