Recommendation for all fans of Mot?rhead, OFF!, Supersuckers, The Dwarves, Poison Idea, Turbonegro. Seattle Zeke punk legends return with their first studio album in 14 years! Short, fast and loud: Tired, mainstream or senile Zeke did not become tired under any circumstances. Hellbender' offers 15 high-energy songs between thrash punk and mot?rhead. They recorded the new album with the famous producer Jack Endino (Nirvana, High on Fire, The Acc?sed). Hellbender' is an absolute point landing in Zeke's 25-year-long band career, it sounds more aggressive, direct and crazy than anything else they've released so far. Metal Hammer writes about Hellbender: "Her high-energy power-rock scrapes like punk, slams speed like hardcore and has leased the snotty drunkenness and weirdness of Mot?rhead on bad speed. That's exactly what fans of Gr?lhannes Blind Marky Felchtone and Zeke could expect and the scene is really missing at the moment: Thick egg skirt without the courage of the turbo-youth. A kick in the ass (with a running start), flip out, and songs with a running time of just one minute to epic two minutes." Rating: Songwriting 5 + Sound 5 + listening pleasure 5 ? = 5,00
