Gumm – Slogan Machine 12” (Convulse Records)

$24.00

For the past few years, the Chattanooga, Tennessee band Gumm have been making a name for themselves by playing a frantic, intense brand of hardcore that draws on mid-’80s DC. They have developed an imaginative and spiky brand of hardcore punk, one that carves up the genre’s base ingredients and neatly re-splices them in their own image. There’s recognizable components but the end result is distinctly off-kilter, packed with odd chord changes and unpredictable structures.

Slogan Machine is the debut LP from Chattanooga's Gumm. Slogan Machine is a record clearly grounded in Revolution Summer material that remains inventive. It's melodic, but it's also deceptively heavy. Lyrically, the record tackles social decay and alienation - punctuating decades of increased distrust and unease.
