ACxDC

Satan Is King

LP



Despite Satan is King being the bands 2nd full length release, ACxDC have been frothing bile into the American hardcore and powerviolence scene since 2003 with their blasphemous combination of satan, straight edge lifestyle, and political anger. With more split EPs than we’ve had hot dinners, ACxDC released their first full length back in 2014 before alternating between playing live and taking time off. Having never been a ridiculously active band in the first place, ACxDC did return in gigging form last year and have followed up with the soon to be released sophomore release of Satan is King, 15 tracks of purpose built fury perfect for a year as bleak and shit as 2020. Walking the thin line between grindcore and powerviolence whilst making it look easy as you like, the ACxDC sound is murderous as ever, and still maintain the original unit’s ferocity that made them such an exciting act in the first place when they stepped onto the scene. From riffs that blitz at 10000 revs per second before bring it back to a pummelling and intensely slow pace for chest beating moments of machismo, Satan is King is a dynamic experience that has more seething anger imbued into it than anything the band have produced before.
