Combate 49 - Street violence (expensive musicvideo)

A video that made me laugh hard. Best parts is the superthunderattack at 0:50 and the whole band cheating in group at 1:02.

Fighting 84 & Combate 49 - WC to EC RAC (2010)

Tracklist:
01. Combate 49 - Somos patriotas
02. Combate 49 - Enemigos
03. Combate 49 - Somos patriotas (studio live)
04. Fighting 84 - Red dawn
05. Fighting 84 - On parade
06. Fighting 84 - Class rage

Selfreleased by the bands as a free internet split in 2010.

Wierd how both bands sounded way better on their demos. This release is far, far, far from good with Combate 49 starting it of with singing patriotic anthems in Spanish.
Fighting 84 then takes of with 2 new songs and a re-recording of On parade or more of a de-recording of the original track. It sounds as if the band had some problems while recording since the instruments sound like a flatt pancake in the background and on top of that they have added the vocals without any regard of the tempo of the instruments.
If it wasnt for free i would have told you to stick with the bands demo's or wait untill they release something new.
4/10

Tracklist:

02. City lonewolf
03. Evil seed
04. Garden state
05. Street violence

Pro-nationalist RAC band of Latin descent originating from the backstreets of New Jersey. The band has been around since late 2009 and is a part of the Battalion 49 crew that has divisions in both South and North America. A skinhead fraction that according to AFA has close ties with nazi deathsquads in Colombia (well AFA also claims that any band against their views is a nazi so dont believe every lie they tell). For some fun read about this crew you can always visit your local nutjob chapter of the AFA and see what they think about them (click here).

They did a split with Fighting 84 last year and as awefull as that split was i was most confuced with the fact that this patriotic band didnt sing in English. That makes absolutely no sense to me so i was happy to hear that they now sing in English.
The band has done shows with Oxblood and First strike and its easy to hear that both these bands have had a big impact on the bands sound.
The band is far from finished to release a record anytime soon but just like F84 they have a certain raw and unpollished charm to them. Their biggest problem is the tempo of the songs that are way to slow. Sure some songs it fits, like the military feeling it gives to Street violence (the best song on the demo). All songs have quite good lyrics and not at all what i would have expected from a selfproclaimed RAC band.
A young band that i think we will hear from in the future and when we do they will sound better than now.
