Those Unknown "Contribution" EP (lim. 367, black)

THOSE UNKNOWN! In the early and mid-90s, the now legendary label HEADACHE RECORDS stood for a very special sound - American Oi! the New Jersey school. Along with NIBLICK HENBANE, THE WRETCHED ONES and HEADWOUND, THOSE UNKNOWN were and still are at the top of the list of bands that make lovers of this distinctive and bone-dry sound water. 2014: Several years passed, times changed and singer Bill Owens now moved to the west coast of the USA, where he revived the band with a few like-minded people. And how! The songs on "Contribution" sound like lost pearls from a 90s recording session - characterized by Owens' unmistakably dull voice, there are two brand new songs in which you can hear the "Working Class", or rather the "Us vs. them "upstairs" mentality, where nothing comes across as fake, where you don't have to please everyone, where THOSE UNKNOWN are still what they always were in 2014.
