Sydney, Australia grunge powerhouse Hawker released a double A-single yesterday. Bot Noxious and Chaka both represent debut compositions by this powerful Australian group, which strikes hard right from the start. The group evokes the spirit of late nineties grunge, garage rock, alternative rock, punk rock, metal music through a full specter of abrasive riffs, robust basslines, and hard-hitting rhythmic sequences. As soon as you hear the initial notes and beats, you’ll realize that Hawker means real business and bursts with heaviness, energy, and dynamics. It’s cleverly assembled music that will especially suit those listeners who’re into aggressive, thoughtful, genuine approaches to old-school grunge sound.
These tunes come as two colossal slabs of noise that punch directly in the face. The proper amount of distortion piles the skin as you dig deeper into this material. Cleverly arranged basslines stick like glue to the guitars but also serve as support to the rhythm section. The continuous accentuations over the cymbals and perfectly sounding snare are chopping the atmosphere with all its power. The lead vocalist emits so much aggression and hysteria during the choruses that will blow your head off. The entire band operates as big grunge machinery that tears everything apart in the broad radius. Bot Noxious and Chaka are available for listening on all streaming services.
