IF THEY CAN'T TAKE A JOKE... FUCK'EM!

as you are no stranger to THE RITES if you are a regular visitor of my blog I'll keep this post short! pissed off, angry and spiteful HARDCORE. the vocalist played drums for TEAR IT UP and other band members have been in CUT THE SHIT if I'm not mistaken. all in all a brilliant band but somehow nobody seems to care about them? click the cover to d/l!

YOUR LAST RITES

the YOUR LAST RITES 7 track 7" released by DEADALIVE in 2002 is my favorite THE RITES release. in case you don't know: THE RITES is the brilliant band that features TEAR IT UP's drummer on vocals and knows how to kick some serious ass! fast, angry and dead aggressive HARDCORE that takes absolutely no fucking prisoners!

FUCK YOUR DRAMA!

if you don't know the THE RITES yet, you missed a really brilliant fast, furious and pissed off as fuck band! I'm not talking about fast like in POWERVIOLENCE I'm talking about fast like in old-school HARDCORE! this is their THERE SHALL BE NO ENCORE one-sided live 12" which I choose to post cause it's their only record I'm quite sure it's out of print and even if not I wouldn't care as one-sided records with screenprinted non-music sides are nice to look at but besides the nice look they are in most cases not really what I'd call value for money. this 12" has 15 songs on the music side and as they always play 3 or 4 tracks in a row I kept it that way when I ripped it! I might ad that their singer plays drums in TEAR IT UP!

THE RITES - THERE SHALL BE NO ENCORE 12"
