“Indingenous” is the first and only album of STRAIGHTHATE (R.I.P.). Its 12 tracks of christraping death/grind/hardcore constitute an elegant & devastating assault! Fast, spiritual music with a psychedelic momentum for fans of: Entombed, Malevolent Creation, Immolation, Napalm Death, Brutal Truth, Suffocation, Converge, Breach, Neurosis, Isis, Knut, Nasum, Regurgitate, Rotten Sound, Emperor, Discordance Axis, Burst, etc.
After the band’s demise in 2008, guitarist/songwriter Thanos and vocalist/lyricist Panos formed Dephosphorus, whose debut MLP “Axiom” has recently received substantial critical and fan praise.
“Opinionated, outspoken and armed with noteworthy musicianship, Straighthate are truly a force to be reckoned with when it comes to extreme music.” (morethansounds.net)
“There are a few fucking outstanding moments, though – such as the rare energetic bursts of more overt melody or some oddly droning/noisy lead lines… and just check out those eerie acoustic guitars that pop up out of nowhere during “Higher”!? Awesome.” (www.aversionline.com)
“…the music slots comfortably within the mainstream of contemporary Euro-grind with flashes of the Scandi-sound (the thorny prickle of the Nasum-ish “Isolator”) and more continental fare. The screeches border on black metal’s demesne and tag out to guttural grunts.” (Grind And Punishment)
