Baltimore sludge/grind scoundrels MUSKET HAWK lash out with the abrasive new track, “American Scum.”

 

A song about disillusionment, “American Scum” combines blast beats, chunky grooves, and dual vocals to highlight the dark side of power and trusting the wrong people. Written primarily while touring through Canada and recorded at Developing Nations Studio in Baltimore, MUSKET HAWK calls out subhuman scumbags everywhere with a clear message: “No one gets away with it.”

 

“American Scum” is one of two contributions MUSKET HAWK made to a 4-way split LP coming via To Live a Lie Records and Unholy Anarchy Records. The split also features GRIN AND BEAR IT (OH), SIDETRACKED (WA), and UGLY (AZ).

 

Check out tracks from each band below:

GRIN AND BEAR IT: “18 Tons”

SIDETRACKED: “Consequences”

UGLY: “The Trouble”

Over the course of 27 songs. each band challenges the next to a battle of the noisiest with varied doses of sludge, grind, doom, power violence, and hardcore. To Live a Life Records and Unholy Anarchy Records will release the 4-Way Split LP on April 28. More at tolivealie.com/blog
