Princess are a band from Seattle, Washington that plays a very heavy and aggressive form of hardcore punk mixed with post punk and this is a review of their 2013 ep "Selling Sulfur" which was released by made In China Records.
The ep starts out with distorted garage rock noises along with bass and drums which leads to melodic solos and then the music goes into a heavier direction along with aggressive hardcore punk style shouting while also using clean singing.
As the ep continues the band mix garage, post and hardcore together and bring back the mid 80's early 90's Seattle sound and after awhile they start to speed up a bit after having a few really slow songs.
On this ep Princess goes back 20 to 25 years and bring back a heavy post/hardcore sound from back when post did not mean poppy and they also bring in garage and grunge elements to create a very retro orientated sound.
Song lyrics cover everyday themes, while the production has a very strong, powerful, heavy and professional sound where you can hear all of the musical instruments that are present on t his recording.
In my opinion Princess are a very decent sounding of garage, grunge, post and hardcore punk and if you are a fan of those musical genre, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Desert Deep" and "Shaka". 7/5 out of 10.
