Gauze - "Go Back And Wash Your Face" CD 1997 (Fresh Rip @ 320)
One of the "most hardcore" records ever made. I personally rank this highly (#1) not only in Gauze's canon, but in Top 5 debates of "best hardcore LPs ever". If Gauze really isn't the best, there's still no comparing them to any other band on the planet. Here, their 4th album in what was then 16 years of existence, intentionally dry production maximizes the listener's focus solely on each song's supernova E-N-E-R-G-Y! I don't agree with their mystical status (they're just niggaz yo), but with music performed with such burning fury you psychosomatically feel the strain of their muscles and brine of their sweat in every beat and note, there's a fairly good argument to be had for why fanboys pop their puckers on Gauze's schlong. Unbelievably shocking H-A-T-E-R nihil-lyrics too...when you can find translations.
