Repeat Offender Announce Debut Album Weapon Fetish: Hear “People Like You”

In the earliest days of the pandemic, the LA hardcore band Repeat Offender dropped a motherfucker of a demo. They played ugly, elemental early-'80s hardcore with some anthemic oi influences and with a singer, Greg Chacon, who sounded less like a traditional vocalist and more like a delusional 10-foot-tall hooligan who'd accidentally wandered into the studio. Repeat Offender repeated that offense with the 2021 EP Summary Execution and a 2022 promo tape, and now they're ready to unleash their first full-length upon an unsuspecting world.

Repeat Offender's debut album Weapon Fetish features two tracks, "Nobody's Fool" and "Every Man For Himself," that previously appeared on their last promo tape. Judging by the sound of their new song "People Like You," I wouldn't expect those older tracks to take a more sophisticated form than the last time they came out. "People Like You" is a deranged lo-fi blitzkrieg. You could hit play on the song below, or you could just take a good look at that cover art and imagine how it sounds. You would be right, and I mean that as a compliment.

TRACKLIST:
01 "Admission Of Guilt"
02 "Jokes On Youth"

I don't know whether or not the song title "Blood Fued" is intentionally spelled wrong, and frankly I don't care. It rules either way. Weapon Fetish is out 6/26 on Convulse.
