AGATHOCLES Mincer CD (2006)

Agathocles have released somewhere in the vicinity of a thousand splits and nobody has ever been able to keep up with the discography. That's the point. Belgian mincecore played on a budget, on principle, forever.

Mincecore, if you're not already initiated, is the Ghent quartet's own designation, somewhere between grindcore and hardcore with a political bite that never let up across four decades of DIY existence. Mincer sits in the middle of that sprawling catalogue as exactly what Agathocles have always been: fast, loud, blunt, and completely indifferent to your approval. No arena ambitions. No genre softening. The kind of record that fits better in a zine than a press release.

CD. 2006 release. Grindcore / mincecore. Belgium.
