Draped in Ruin: SVFFER
Self Titled 7″ Review + Stream

Germany keeps vomiting out one great hardcore band after another in a seemingly endless bleeding of incredible talent. The last beastly german hardcore band to hit the scene is Svffer a multidimensional hardcore affair once again blending different genres to maximize its destructive yield, but never falling short of delivering a concise, blistering and merciless “classic” hardcore assault at the same time. Svffer feature members of Alpinist and this debut opus was unleashed once again by the extremely forward thinking folks of Vendetta Records, the same folks behind staggering releases by such evolved hardcore bands like Jungbluth, Negative Standards, Children of God and the such.

The band’s raging and beefy sound also brings the Deathwish school into mind, recalling especially bands like Rise And Fall and Oathbreaker, both of which – just as in the case of Svffer – blend a bombastic and pummeling assault of metallic crust and metalcore locked into mindless progressive structures and with extremely confrontational and belligerant overtones that glue everything together. The female lead vocals especially help bring Oathbreaker into mind when listening to these 4 scorching blasts of annihilating hardcore, but Svffer might even go further, often stepping into the territories of grind and straight up powerviolence from time time and taking their musical ordeal to another level of intensity and devastation. Some might argue that four tracks might not be enough to really gauge the pedigree of this band, but try considering the opposite point of view: in just 4 songs and little of five minutes Svffer’s music can turn your skies black and leave few of your bones intact. Maybe that will convince you.
