{"product_id":"futur-medieval-lp-colored-vinyl","title":"Futur Medieval [LP] (Colored Vinyl)","description":"\u003ch2\u003eCRIM - Futur Medieval [LP] (Colored Vinyl)\u003c\/h2\u003e\nCatalan punk band CRIM are back with \ntheir fifth proper studio LP, Futur Medieval, \ndistributed in the USA by Pirates Press \nRecords.\n It takes a special kind of band to maintain \nthe combination of longevity and creative \nspark to still be going strong on their fifth \nalbum. It is this kind of persistence that \nhas built CRIM into perhaps the most \ninternationally noted band from Catalo\nnia. CRIM attracts attention from all over \nthe world to the intensity of their scene \nwith their dark brand of streetpunk, sung \nin their native tongue.\n On Futur Medieval, CRIM juxtaposes \nviolent imagery of the Middle Ages with \nthat of contemporary society, commenting \non a potential future where, despite \ntechnological and industrial ''progress,'' \nhumanity has regressed into barbarism. \nThe spectacularly evocative cover art could \nat first glance be mistaken for a medieval \nbattle scene... until one looks closer to \nnote the presence of drones and giant \nrobots among the fray.\n On singles such as ''Res de Nou'' (''Nothing \nNew''), ''Carnets de Punk'' (''Punk Cards''), \n''Combats d'Autoesgrima'' (''Fencing with \nYourself''), and the title track, CRIM's \ntrademark combination of gritty, driving \nstreetpunk, shout along choruses, and \ncatchy guitar hooks is in fine form, as the \nband thematically navigate issues of \nidentity, self-sabotage, and what it takes to \nsurvive in a world that can be harsh and \nbleak. Closing out the album is a cover of \n''Preso Mental'' (''Mental Prisoner''), the \n1989 hit by Catalan darkwavers Kitsch.\n CRIM have built an international fanbase \nfar beyond those who speak their \nlanguage by tapping into universally \nrecognizable themes paired with \nirresistible music. No matter whether you \nunderstand the language or if you need to \ntranslate the lyrics, from the moment you \ndrop the needle on this record, it will be \nabundantly clear that Futur Medieval is \nCRIM at their finest.\n\n TRACK LIST:\n SIDE A\n 01.
