UPPERCUT - Tables Turned

Location: Nederland
Release: I Scream Records, 2006 (out of print)

Last album by the dutch Uppercut, 13 tracks of angry old school hardcore packed with breakdowns. All the energy from their previous album "A Luta Continua" plus a better production can be heard on this record.




They were making a similar sound to what other european old school bands were doing at that time, bands like No Turning Back, Nothing Done, Death or Glory and Abusive Action. No further info can be found about them, even their I Scream page has jack squat.

UPPERCUT - A Luta Continua

Listen: www.myspace.com/uppercuthardcore
Location: The Nederland
Release: I Scream Records, 2002 (out-of-print)



Influences: Wide Awake, Minor Threat, Kill Your Idols



"Old School Gems #5 - Dutch's Uppercut are also remarkable (not the be mistaken with NY's Uppercut), formed in 1995 they play some frenzy fast old school hardcore revival at its best. They released 3 albums and 1 EP or so, wich I will upload them one day as well, unfortunaly they called it quits last year. Interesting choice for this album's name by the way, in portuguese, meaning "the struggle continues" didnt figure out why though."
