YLEISET SYYT – Saitte Mit Halusitte

Description

Saitte Mit Halusitte is the new 9-song mini-LP from Helsinki, Finlands Yleiset Syyt. If you loved 2022s collection LP Toisten Todellisuus (also co-released byLa Vida Es Un Mus and Sorry State), youll be pleased to hear Yleiset Syyt still has a knack for finding that circa-1981 hardcore sweet spot, evoking a momentwhen hardcores aggression bubbled over, yet the music still contained much of the pop architecture that anchored late 70s punk. In laymans terms, Imtalking about hooks, which Yleiset Syyt has for days. Check out the downright iconic riffs in Geenipoolin Pohjimmainen or the title track, Saitte Mit
Halusitte. These riffs dont just stick in your head; like I Dont Wanna Hear It or Pay to Cum or Iron Man, they make you want to pick up a guitar and join inthe fun. While Yleiset Syyts potent songcraft still recalls their Finnish forbears Lama as well as first-gen US hardcore legends like Minor Threat or the Fix,
Saitte Mit Halusitte doesnt stop at homage, pushing the sound in several directions while maintaining Yleiset Syyts instantly identifiable voice.
Aavekaupunki and Kaaos J draw on gripping, tension-filled UK82 punk, while Sotakoneet has that touch of melancholy that made both Lama and early Bad Religion so special. Ansioton Kyh taps into Appendixs aggressive glam-punk, while Tuhat Ktt closes the record by fusing moody UK anarcho-punk with Damaged I-style mental breakdown vocals. If youre looking for raging, catchy hardcore, then Saitte Mit Halusitte will scratch that itch. But theres something else happening here too, a Plastic Surgery Disasters / Machine Gun Etiquette-esque redrawing of hardcores boundary lines, incorporating new moods and textures without compromising the genres fundamental wallop.
