Prophet Margin - Faith Salesmen (2011)


Genre - Crack Rock Steady


Good Crack Rock is hard to come by. In a world saturated with fusions and where Crust seems to be the order of the month, one has to take a dogmatic stance to what is acceptable as punk. This suffices, with good songs, bad songs and leftover something.

Prophet Margin stays true to the nihilistic tendencies of Crack Rock, for the reason that it seems to be anti-everything. I promote this as an alternative to the happy-clappy shit that seems to have taken over. With screeching vocals, they do not fuck around with trying to sound ‘clean’, a highly respectable virtue, in a world saturated with all that sounds nice.

Faith Salesmen is a follow-up on their 2009, “We've all got cancer”. Prophet Margin are from Australia.
