Retox

Short but definitely not sweet.

Retox’s YPLL isn’t the art rock saviour it may be touted as, but it’s a nonetheless impressive, aggressive and forward-thinking fiery record, deserving of any punk’s record collection for 2013.

Abrasive, fast-paced technical hardcore/grindcore. Get on it.

Recent Epitaph signing Retox are about to put out their sophomore record, the blistering, energetic 'YPLL'. Featuring The Locust frontman Justin Pearson and a host of gifted musicians, the band craft jagged, go-for-the-throat hardcore with an art-rock edge. Ahead of the album's release, we chat to guitarist Michael Crain.
