Boasting an entirely unhinged, filthy auditory assault, Melbourne, Australia-based ragers KROMOSOM have hooked up with Southern Lord Recordings for the band's first CD release, "Live Forever". Born in the smoldering wake of now-defunct Australian crust acts SCHIFOSI and PISSCHRIST, and featuring current members of LEPROSY, BLOODY HAMMER and fellow Southern Lord mercenaries NUCLEAR DEATH TERROR, KROMOSOM have kicked a massive dent into the international crust/punk/hardcore circuit working under the band doctrine: "noisier, nastier, rawer." Through several vinyl-only indie releases and steady waves of international touring since their 2010 inception the band caught the attention of Southern Lord, who now confirm the first CD release in KROMOSOM's discography with "Live Forever". The bruising fifteen-track assault captures all of the band's material previously only available on vinyl, including their self-titled 12-inch, tracks from the "Hardcore Pollution" split seven-inch single with ISTERISMO, and the "Paranoid" seven-inch single, all mastered for maximum pandemonium by Jack Control (WORLD BURNS TO DEATH, SEVERED HEAD OF STATE). If this doesn't get you raging, it's time to hang up your boots and join the rest of the sheep.
