Necrotic Society | DCxPC Live & Dead Vol. 2 | LP

Description

DCxPC Live & Dead Vol. 2 Presents Necrotic Society is an unrelenting sonic assault that captures both the raw, chaotic energy of their live performance and the crushing precision of their studio work. This release perfectly embodies the ethos of politically charged hardcore, blending elements of punk and metal into an aggressive, uncompromising sound. The live side, recorded at the Blackthorn on March 16, 2019, delivers an electrifying performance that transports listeners straight into the pit, preserving the sheer force of their stage presence. Every shouted lyric, blistering riff, and pummeling drum hit is captured with the intensity that only a truly great live recording can provide. The dead side, recorded between 2021 and 2022, offers a polished but equally brutal take on the band’s signature sound, showcasing their ability to channel raw aggression into crushingly heavy studio tracks. With Saba on guitar, Courtney on vocals, Javi on bass, and JR on drums, Necrotic Society refuses to hold back, delivering a relentless barrage of sound that demands attention. This album came to life after DCxPC Live’s Scott Pasch met the band on tour and immediately recognized their ferocity, leading to conversations about creating a release that could properly document their intensity. Mixed and mastered by Joshua Dobbs at Danger Room Recording Services for the live side and Brandon Bujnowsky for the studio tracks, this record ensures that every ounce of their sonic fury is captured in full force. With artwork by Fraido and cover design by Jessica Hadas, the album visually reflects the band’s raw, no-frills approach to hardcore. This record is not just a collection of songs; it is a document of a band that refuses to compromise, a testament to the underground hardcore scene, and a powerful statement against complacency and oppression. For fans of politically charged, high-energy hardcore that thrives in both live and studio settings, DCxPC Live & Dead Vol. 2 is an essential addition to any collection. Whether you’re reliving the intensity of a live show or experiencing their fury through the polished brutality of the studio recordings, this release delivers a complete picture of what makes Necrotic Society one of the most uncompromising bands in modern hardcore. If you’ve ever been in the pit for a Necrotic Society set, you know what’s coming—if you haven’t, this record will make you feel like you’re right there, front and center, drowning in the chaos.
