ALBUM REVIEW: Born Shit Stirrers \u2013 Lester (Serial Bowl Records\/Chaos Control\/Boss Tuneage)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

How does a DIY punk label based in Sunderland end up co-releasing a slice of raging hardcore by a group from Japan? I don’t know, but I like it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Formed in Fukuoka in 2016, Born Shit Stirrers<\/strong><\/a> are made up mostly of UK and US ex-pats, and the closest comparison I can think of musically is Revenge Of The Psychotronic Man<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They share two things in common with the sadly-departed Manchester trio, who, by their own admission, played ‘stupidly fast’ punk rock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first is the sheer velocity of the songs, though if anything BSS songs are shorter and even more frantic than ROTPM’s were.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Secondly, many of their songs have nonsensical or just plain offensive titles, like Old Punks Are Old Cunts and Fuck My Fucking Life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
