HYSTERESE - S/T (3)

HYSTERESE's 3rd, "self-titled" album is a little step out of the long portland-music-shadow into the world of popy tunes. But stop: its still HYSTERSE, their own twin singing, their superb guitar-melodies, the stakkato riffing and their precise, machine-like drumming. You may find between all these HYSTERESE trademarks some tiny tiny sparkling pop-diamonds, which suits 'em good. If you dig the sadness of THE WIPERS, the explosivness of old DESCENDENTS records and the hits and melodies of your fav RAMONES songs, you will dig this little piece of punk-rock as well.
