One of the most anticipated hardcore punk releases last year, Break the Seal 7” (2016) by Buffalo/Syracuse’s Pissing Match.
Short, fast, hardcore punk, Pissing Match is legitimately pissed off and they tell you exactly why.  Singling out the fakes and frauds in hardcore and punk, Pissing Match is not afraid to point the finger at just about anyone.
With straightforward, catchy lyrics like, “I can’t get a job/without pissing in a cup/and I’m not pissing in a cup,” “fuck your image/fuck your fashion/fuck your shitty zine/and fuck your shitty scene” and, “your perceived social status in a dead-end town/makes you the perfect candidate for a party clown,” Pissing Match point out painfully obvious truths and expose the façades and pettiness of the social scene.
Jaded and pissed off at everything, Pissing Match keeps it old school and fast.  Break the Seal lives up to the hype.  Finally available as a co-release between Pissing Match and Feral Kid Records.
