Hero Dishonest ‎– Juggernaut + Let Your Poison Scream lp

Two albums on ONE lp.

Review of Juggernaut:

"At a time when all-haired punk and hardcore are more clicked and fragmented into smaller and smaller subspecies, an unconstrained Mättö like Hero Dishonest is even more refreshing. Juggernaut can’t be compartmentalized outright, it’s just traditional and angry ticks. With double vocals, screaming guitars and a hell of a distorted bass, meta is created and best of all, the band has a replacement for real hooks and even melodies. One of the biggest merits is the sharpness of the reed. Many politically stigmatized punk bands are smart and the message is justified, but few are able to distance themselves from the content so that the end result is not only appealing but also obliquely humorous. Nothing makes frost on important things like a suffocating self-sufficiency. If you´re only what they want to see in you, how could we ever communicate ?, the band itself asks Don´t Blame Me.

Hero Dishonest’s ugly debut Pleasure / Disgust was a qualified roar too, but Juggernaut is a more refined form from the same blank, which doesn’t mean smoothing, other bumping or alternatively slipping to the metal side. The album's raw but sinewy production has produced a rugged and effective effect that makes the album a harder-than-average punk-resistant listening experience. Even if the record is one runtime, that doesn’t mean it couldn’t have ups and downs as well. Great achievement, because Juggernaut has no stadium ballads or other hits.

The vocal department of Hero Dishonest is as pushy as before and in its totality such that the words are not miraculously clear. Perhaps there could be more differences in the use of voice by soloists, but it is also valid. And when the couple of Finnish songs on this album are also the most functional ones on the album, should you consider changing the singing language to the first Finnish one?" - Antti Luukkanen
