EP Review: Pollute "self titled" (Independent) by Devin J. Meaney

Band: Pollute
Location: North Carolina
Country: USA
Genre: Hardcore, D-beat
Format: Digital
Label: Independent
Release date: May 31, 2024
Scrolling the wasteland that is the streams that dwell at the very bottom of YouTube I found the self-titled EP by “Pollute”! Featuring four tracks in under 10 minutes this is a short blast of hardcore d-beat. The production is great and the vibes are good and overall what is presented is more than passable!
The instruments are stellar and although there is a genre difference—vocally I am at times reminded of the vocals from early GWAR tracks! (Think songs like “Maggots”.)
Although this is d-beat style punk revelry I do think that fans of metal and grind might be able to dig what is offered here!
These guys hail from Durham USA and they can be found at various places on the net. Make your way to your keyboard and make a search for them—this EP is pretty friggin’ rad and I’m sure anything else they put out will be just as awesome! -Devin J. Meaney

Track list:
1. Nite
2. Cries of the Future
3. Nuclear Cage
4. Flick of the Switch
