If you weren't already a happy bastard today, the album art above should take care of that. If that fails, give the music a shot. Unless you're one who considers melody a ghastly scourge upon hardcore, these Eugene, Oregonians will surely free the closeted, illicitly-begotten child within all of you and stir your loins into such a tizzy you'll want to accost strangers, beget more and start the bastard baby boom! But seriously, these bastards create a real threat in the way they coat pure subversion and defiance in a glorious subterfuge of sweet melody and driving rhythms, reinventing hardcore punk as something dangerous and new again. We all now it's not actually new, but for a moment or two, while listening, I actually forget I'm a jaded fuck. Fans of Burning Kitchen, Sado-Nation, Godless, and Harum Scarum should take special interest in Happy Bastards, and to spread the creed I'm offering two splits.
The first is a 7" with the UK's Kismet HC, who bring together the best aspects of One By One, Ebola, and Disaffect, with a touch of Life...But How to Live it? On this one, Kismet blast Happy Bastards away. They're just way on top of their game, and HBs have hollow production and much less energy than they had on the next split (except for "Damn Nation" maybe).
This next split is an LP, and although both bands are from Eugene (not international, I know), the Happy Bastards tracks are just too incredibly good not to post. These eight anthrax Jell-o shots go down so smooth and just rip you the hell apart. I was an instant fan; no latency period required. Side A is occupied by Human Certainty, a band who seemed young and full of ideas. Like many bands of this nature, putting it all together yielded uneven results, although I do enjoy their music quite a bit (not so much their vocals). Stylistically HC could have come from Arizona, bringing to mind the metallic yet emotional fury of bands like Absinthe or Jeremin.

I do believe all the tips you might have presented for your post. Theyre really convincing and can surely work. Nonetheless, the posts are really quick for novices. Could you please lengthen them a bit from next time? Thank you for the post.

Dont kwon si voici le bon site pour poster ceci, je suis l'une des personnes qui ont bénéficié du Dr. Ogbeifun Love Spell. Le Dr Ogbeifun est apparu au milieu de ma vie quand tout espoir a été perdu. J'ai abandonné la vie et j'ai pensé que le meilleur moyen de guérir mon cœur brisé était de prendre ma vie après avoir essayé plusieurs procédés pour retrouver mon mari qui m'a largué après deux ans de mariage pour une autre femme. Je me suis décidée à continuer avec mon plan de suicide avant qu'un esprit étrange ne vienne sur moi comme une pluie et m'a soigné pour chercher en ligne. Après avoir vu tant de discours sur le Dr. Ogbeifun Temple, j'ai cherché à contrecoeur et trouvé des témoignages et des recommandations incroyables à son sujet, ce qui m'a encouragé à le contacter via son email. Il a répondu et m'a demandé d'essuyer mes larmes et de quitter tout acte pour prendre ma vie; il a dit que mon cas pouvait être résolu après avoir consulté son Oracle. Eh bien, je remercie aujourd'hui le Dr Ogbeifun de m'avoir sauvé la vie et de ramener mon mari. Nous sommes si heureux aujourd'hui et plus heureux que jamais. Il m'a aussi aidé à arrêter mon problème d'arrêt cardiaque. Je suis très reconnaissant d'être parmi les personnes partageant ce témoignage.

hello everyone, I am Thomas Gift. I want to use this medium to appreciate Dr Ogbeifun the great black magic death spells caster for the successful death spells he cast on someone for me. I contacted him when my husband left me for another woman who uses witchcraft power to take my husband. I was desperately in need of help when I found his contacts online about his genuine powers. I told him my situation and how I wanted the bitch who took my husband gone. He told me not to worry. He cast the death spells ritual on her and the bitch died in her sleep within 24hours. Now my husband is back home and we are living happily. Thank you so much Dr Ogbeifun, You are so real and true.
