TO THE POINT 19.09.07
the new album’s ready at last and scheduled for release on 19.09.07... it features 11 uncompromising slabs of punk rock fury addressing the regular headcount topics of religion, politics and social commentary... headcount are never shy of covering controversial subjects, but there are one or two surprises here too, as the songs reflect the development in the band’s maturity [you havin’ a laugh? -ed]... but seriously though - this is an absolute, ball-breaking, head smashing cracker of an album...
tracklisting: enough is enough, control, bleed, gravy train, daddy,
mother earth, misery, it’s a business doing pleasure with you,
they only let you have it if they know you’ll bring it back (aka davinci ode),
why me?, red mist...
they’re gigging regularly so keep an eye on their myspace for a list of current shows
================================
eighteen feet tall and over fifty stone of loud
guitars, growling bass and thunderous drums that's headcount
punky metal with an emphasis on melody
headcount have never relied on what is hip
and fashionable, preferring to follow their
own path through the murky waters polluted
by emo and nu-metal - that's why they stand
out from the crowd
quickly established for their uncompromising
attitude, they've gained a reputation for being,
in the words of many a soundman, "the loudest
fuckin' band I've ever heard"
musically compared to therapy, motorhead
and killing joke, 2004 saw headcount team up
with malicious damage to release their second
album die monkey die, produced by paul
raven of killing joke and martin ratcliffe of the
legendary neon hearts
this is what the press had to say rock sound: headcount rock like a bastard... from the system of
a down on acid 1000 miles to the punk two-step of
korea woman this trio are headed for great things
nightshift: headcount use their punk rock weaponry to crack
heads and break balls... they rock like hellbound
pig-fucking devil dogs
kerrang!: it's bands like headcount that make the often
thankless task of wading through new 'talent' in
search of a gem worthwhile
metalUK:this album ranges from the very good to the truly
great, and should be placed upon your 'must buy'
lists immediately Spraise the production talents
of messrs raven and ratcliffe for this sounds
absolutely huuuuuge bung on some headphones and
it feels like the band are actually playing
inside your head - frightening...
