The Grebs

Review by EndlessxBummer:
"Have you heard The Grebs? I found them on Myspace and gave them a listen, I dug what I heard. Then they went and sent me a sampler for their forthcoming album along with three newly recorded tracks. This was absolutely ages ago, and I’m sorry for taking my time with it. The kick off track Infested: A Police State is excellent, Leftover Crack have been letting me down with their limited output since Mediocre Generica and The Grebs pick up where they left off. Is it ska-core? I don’t what you would call it, there are ska parts and there are hardcore parts, they rarely overlap. They call it dubdowncore. Its an interesting mix and The Grebs take it further than their Crack laced counterparts visiting more with the NYHC style. The songs are sample heavy with dialogues about CCTV and global warming etc. There were three new tracks included with my sampler, the recording was crisper and they seem to have picked up some brass along the way. The band have developed between these recordings, the new songs are tighter, better and more original. What We Live For is the stand out track out of what I have heard so far, sometimes you could believe that these guys were hanging around NY in its hardcore prime whilst listening to Desmond Dekker. I reckon when this album finally comes out, its going to be a belter.
You can buy the sampler, or generally have a bit of a listen at http://www.myspace.com/thegrebs."
