World War XX1V, Gun Sin Project, Shayde @ Surf Rock Sydney -August 2001


Guitar driven sweat rock is the flavour of Shayde's sound.

A wave that rants and raves and jolts your system with its snap tight agenda and squelched rumble.

Rambling grey moods that crack open and splinter into the void.

The colours are definitely dark, but the spice is as red as a chilli-ravaged raw, butt cool!

Gun Sin Project (RIP Big Andy) have dragged themselves out of the studio for their very first live performance, and they seem to be a mixture of hype and apprehension.

An almost 60s trip-o-rama, that's naturally stoned, yet electronically hyped.

Drums, bass, samples & guitar...a non-offensive, spacey, 3-way journey.

A swap of instruments and it all gets a little groovier.

A kind of fad-free freestyle one moment, and a grunged, guitar-quirked foray the next.

Add a touch of didge and you've got a new edge to the often hypnotic experiment.

Very different stuff indeed.

Making a sort of comeback, long players World War 24 manage to blow my nuts off from the very outset.

Fucking brutal thrash cats from hell. Punk with all the power...and then some!

Straining vox that scrape and scream right thru to your bones.

So much adrenalin coming at ya, you almost get bowled over in the rush.

So much hell-raising wrapped up in a kick-fuck bullet of pure punk beauty.

This is punk in its primal form, no bullshit, just brutal raw passion. God save punk rock.

Loud, lush & lurid carnage! Yeah!
