1186 – Histeria

Beschreibung

1186 was formed in Bogota, Colombia within the Rat Trap’s (contracultural art house) spectrum with members from Ataque Zero, Trampa and Fatal with multiple influences of Finish/ UK Punk and Post Punk bands. Histeria is the band’s debut LP, from the outset it is one of the most hypnotising, dark, hook laden records you will hear this year. Death has never been so life affirming.

„Stylistically, the band’s roots in more traditionally street-punk and hardcore acts like Ataque Zero and Trampa are apparent from the get go, but tracks like “Fracaso Molecular” draw upon west coast death rock and early UK peace punk. Hell, even the guitar solos crammed into the bridges of tracks like “Hoy” speak to this hybridized heritage, connoting d-beat, crossover thrash, and first wave goth rock. Without ever letting the pace drop, 1186 find ways of carrying the mood and gothic atmospherics of deathrock through each of these territories.
Like the earliest records by Belgrado and Spectres, Histeria does a fantastic job of zeroing in on what makes deathrock different from either original punk or pure goth, and makes that sense of swaggering doom its focus. But despite its real affinity for the roots of the genre, it never feels like a joyless exercise in neo-traditionalism, and its omnivorous approach to other genres and traditions emerges as one of the most invigorating and refreshing dark rock records you’ll hear this year.“
