APPÄRATUS from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia plays Raw d-beat with obvious Swedish influences. Their debut album was released by Shogun in 2009 and they also put out majestic records like a split 7” with the mighty PISSCHRIST. They recorded a few songs last year and asked us to put them out to support their upcoming first European tour! So here it is! Review of the tape by Robert @ Terminal Escape blog : A subtle but significant tweak on the raw DBeat paradigm, this anniversary demo (13 fukkn years!) from Malaysia's APPÄRATUS is nine minutes of raw mutilating insanity. The only time this shit lets up is one high end tinged MOTORHEAD influenced number, but they launch right back into raging DISCHARGE by way of Sweden on the last track...and the "this is the end" chorus seals the deal (as if there was any doubt left). Blistering. Self-recorded, re-mastered by Dan Randall. 500 copies. Comes with printed insert. May 2013
