GLOBAL HORROR / RETORSION – split – EP

„This split 7″ takes us right back to the late ’80s and early ’90s, an era when grindcore enjoyed absolute, uncontrollable notoriety. Names like Napalm Death and Repulsion struck terror into the hearts of every pious mother in the Western world, and before the grunge and death metal trends split the scene, every punk out there loaded up on noise just as they pleased.Fast forward to 2025, and French old-school grinders clash with metallic grindcore from Hungary to forge what is destined to become a future cult split 7″ on the European continent. Co-released by Calvos 73 and Psychocontrol Records (Czech Republic), Blastbeat Worship Tapes (Hungary), and Enfermo Distro (Portugal), these labels have performed an unholy service for the global cult of eardrum shredders.
Global Horror delivers a strict, crushing ride from Bordeaux. Raw, old-school riffs will grind you to dust! Damn, where do the French keep finding so many people who want to blast extreme music? Haha, that’s not a complaint, that’s pure joy… On the flip side, their Budapest comrades Retorsion lean slightly into metal territory with their worship of the Michigan cult Repulsion. But damn, they play it their own way and they do it well—fucking well!Black vinyl, simple cover – what more do you need to spend the day spinning records on your turntable?“
