GELD Released New Album; Watch Video For “Secret Prison”
GELD’s Currency // Castration renders the dissociation and alienation of modern living with exacting precision.

They’ve distilled a despairingly hellish vision of the world into…

Today, we’re returning to the times when hardcore punk music was on the rise. Those were also the times when musicians didn’t care about sound quality, glossy finish on the cardboard sleeve, and any other details usually heard or seen on many contemporary hardcore records. In the early days, bands paid much more attention to…
