Album Review: The Prople Will Have Their ‘Revenge’

All right, let’s get this out of the way – the Prople is an incredibly silly name for a band, even for horrorpunk, a subgenre permeated with silly band names. That said, these central-Florida veggie-powered creepsters have crafted fifteen aggressive, catchy blasts of ghoulish punk rock venom with their debut full-lenth, Revenge. Owing far more to poppy skate punk and early-1980s hardcore fury than to any band showcasing Glenn Danzig’s gothic croon, the album is a refreshing dose of gritty, horror/sci-fi-influenced rock n’ roll in a sea of Graves-era Misfits sound-alikes. Opening track “Grim Grinning Ghosts” sets the tone with its ultra-Hallows Eve-y synth into, then things get much more belligerent (and ridiculous) from there. Star Wars nerds can rejoice in the one-two punch of “The Force Awakens” and “Daddy Built a Death Star”, while “Dirty Laundry” sounds like Black Flag gone crust. Depending on one’s favorite character from the beloved anime series, the Dragon Ball Z faithful may want

Consumed By Nightmares: An Interview With Integrity’s Dwid Hellion

Integrity is a band that has been crafting malevolent, horror-influenced metallic hardcore for nearly thirty years. As pitch-dark as it is sonically brutal, Integrity’s music has influenced countless hardcore, punk, death/thrash/black metal, and grind/noise acts. The band’s twelfth full-length album, Howling, for the Nightmare Shall Consume is set to be released on Friday, July 14 on Relapse Records, and Horror Fuel was able to speak with Integrity’s frontman, Dwid Hellion, on topics ranging from the release of the new record, to his favorite fright flicks and the horror of the Bible. Horror Fuel: Howling… is the tenth tenth full length from Integrity. How would you compare it to previous releases? Dwid Hellion: I would not compare any of the albums with one another. They each have their own personality and sound. Though, they are still recognizable as Integrity albums, they each offer a sound that differs from the others. With Howling… we worked on it for two years and tried

Rebel Flesh Summon Satanic Seduction In New Music Video

Austin, Texas horror punks Rebel Flesh revel in all things sinister and sexy in the music video for new song, “Shadows”. The song, a sonic midpoint between the impishly playful vibe of punk/power pop heroes the Vibrators and the syrupy-smooth sound of the late 1980s Ramones, is perfectly accompanied by footage of a creepy cutie kneeling in a pentagram, playing with a blood-drenched dagger, and the band plying their craft. Later in the video, the demonic baddie summoned by the seductive Satanist comes a’ calling, and she doesn’t seem too thrilled. What did she think was going to happen? “Shadows” is a breath of fresh air in the overcrowded morgue that is horrorpunk, as is all of the band’s material to date. Now, all we need is a co-headlining world tour with these Texas terrors and Swedish scare-rockers the Dahmers, and all will be right in the world. Watch the new “Shadows” music video below.
