158 - Threat

 So the next song in the ongoing thread is from a band I became aware of during the days when I used to do a fanzine... it is;

D 4th S, by Pop Threat

There were actually two versions of this one released, one as a single, and the other a demo version from a compilation. I actually always preferred the demo version as it had such a raw edge to it and I never really thought it needed to be re-recorded. That's just how it is sometimes. 

Like Atta Girl, we have two sets of vocals over the top of each other, but each one here is at about the same level. It can take a while to make out everything, but when you do figure out what the song is about... well, it is rather sad. 

Again, like Atta Girl, there's a blistering instrumental section, but here it's the climax of the song. I can imagine when played live it was probably an epic wall of sound and feedback. It's sheer power. 

Anyhow... enjoy;


Don't get oversentimental...
