Dut : Askatu Korapiloa

More Basque stuff here. This band is linked to Enoren Ero Ni and Bap!!. They put out three albums that I know of and this was their last, and in my opinion far and away their best. Precise, passionate, noise-rock and hardcore influenced rock.


ASKATU KORAPILOA

Bap!! : Lehertzeko Garaia

Around since 1984, these guys were apparently pillars of the Basque hardcore scene (by the time of this release, in 1994, their sound had evolved to include a lot of rock elements. They're obviously a very passionate political band, but being ignorant of Basque, I can't tell you much beyond that...

Members went on to play in Inoren Ero Ni, who posted I a few days ago.


LEHERTZEKO GARAIA

Inoren Ero Ni : s/t

Catchy, moody post-punk/rock from Basque country in Spain. Claiming inspiration from Fugazi, GVSB, and Captain Beefheart, this band contains members of the Basque hardcore band BAP(who I'll post soon). They are label-mates of the below-posted Lisabö and they're a bit like a more hook and tune-oriented version of that band. This s/t was released in 2004, and I believe they have a new album out now (which I can't find any way to purchase--help?). Anyway, I only ran across this recently, but am quite liking it--have a listen:


Inoren Ero Ni

Lisabö - Ezlekuak

Brilliant Basque post-punk/hardcore band. Shades of Fugazi, Shellac etc. Bumped to the top because I like it a lot, and because I found a good video:
