North Korea, the band with the silly name, not the country with the silly leader (which I can make fun of because I’m awesome I don’t live there), kept their promise, and yesterday they released their free EP, The Basement Tapes, Vol. 1. Why am I posting this today? Because if I did it yesterday, people would just dismiss the article as a joke.
So, what’s it like? I’ll tell you what’s it like — it’s free! So go over to their download page and listen to it. If I had to be a bit more specific, I’d say it sounds like… Erm… Rock. Too generic? Well, all this guitar music sounds like noise to me and I just drank my milk and I’m ready to go to bed. All kidding aside, it’s not bad at all, so if you’re for some post-hardcore-ish hard rock, give them a chance. You can also make the jump to see a performance video for Master Plan B and the album artwork.
