Raleigh, North Carolina's Double Negative present their debut effort, which is ten blasts of violent, raging hardcore punk, taking the power of "Animosity"-era C.O.C. and mixing in the raw aggression of bands like Discharge and Void.--RevHQ...Opting out of both the “life sucks, everybody hates me” negativism of legendary turn-of-the-century ‘80s hardcore revivalists Tear It Up, as well as the obtuse weirdness of current old-school kings ~censored~ Up, Double Negative play breakneck, lo-fi hardcore with a profound sense of excitement and energy. Leads squiggle like old Black Flag, and thrash beats Infest the entire 10-or-so-minute album, but the whole thing feels fun and refreshing instead of oppressive or bummed. Which makes sense, considering a double negative is actually a positive. Whoa!--Alex Frank
