witching hour. 11.5 / troufion / 4 tracks / 1998
Two versions of the regular edition (1000?): #1 - silver printing on dark blue paper, #2 - silver printing on dark green paper; #3 - Tour edition (50 made) has black printing on white paper and slightly different design for TDOA sleeve side (actually my copy is numbered “51/50 - gee how does that happen?”). No mention of Witching Hour records on record, cover, labels or runout grooves.
TDOA play diverse and powerful hardcore; good blend of calm emo and chaotic noise & scream hardcore. Racebannon do their usual thing; spacy ambient noise and sick complex screamo - great. Good 7”. [8]
TDOA spielen abwechslungsreichen und kraftvollen Hardcore; schöne Mischung aus ruhigen Passagen und chaotischem Lärm & Schrei-Emo. Racebannon bleiben ihrem Erfolgsrezept treu, spaciger Ambientkrach und krankes, kompliziertes Emo-Geschrei. Gute EP.
Tracks: To Dream of Autumn - data a.k.a. pinchers of power / someday // Racebannon - johnny jet blast off / funny, she doesn’t look french
