Seattle's Iron Lung is kicking ass and taking no prisoners with their new LP White Glove Test. The record is real brutal, 20 vicious songs in 22 minutes, and by the close leaves the listener begging for mercy in the best way possible. White Glove Test is not that pussy hardcore shit that came in the 90's on the coattails of the Circle Jerks, Minor Threat, and Bad Brains. It is for the more ruthless.
The album is a split release between their own label, Iron Lung Records, and the ever imposing Prank Records. The record begins with “Pain Directive”, an 18 second total smack in the face, and from there takes you on a journey of “power violence”. This album is filled with two-step galore and heavier musical pummeling than you have probably ever been exposed to. Let Iron Lung thrash you around, we promise you won't regret it.
