DESCRIPTION:
Discarga is a fast hardcore band from Brasil.
Few years ago, hardcore punk suddenly started to witness the emergence of countless bands playing fast, straight forward music, in an attempt to revive a genre many of us grew up moshing to. Old school enthusiasts were blown away by the growing interest in a hardcore music style which, according to them, was being forgotten or put aside in a time when hardcore was going totally metal. The so called fast hardcore revival was everywhere. Needless to say, a great number of bad unauthentic bands were around. Bands like Charles Bronson and What Happens Next?, however, set fire to hardcore by bringing back fast and truly energetic music played with passion. Meanwhile, the periphery of hardcore punk was giving birth to what would become one of the best and most intense fast hardcore bands of today: Discarga, from São Paulo, Brazil. Third World Hardcore’s powerful trio Discarga started out some time in ‘98 and, right after a couple of months of practicing, took part in a compilation called “Protesto Punk”. A year later, they recorded their first demo, which got some really crazy response everywhere and ended up drawing attention from Max 625 Thrash, who immediately asked them to do a record with his label. They soon recorded a truly amazing 7” for 625 and went on tour in Brazil and Argentina. After the 7”, Discarga put out a second demo and wrote a couple of tracks for compilations.
