DESCRIPTION FROM CRUCIAL BLAST:
This collection of EP material from Cali crust outfit Dystopia has gone in and out of print over the past twenty years, originally appearing on the German label Common Cause in 1994 and later coming out on the band's own Life Is Abuse imprint; now Tank Crimes has stepped in to once again reissue this classic disc of misanthropic sludgepunk for it's twentieth anniversary, and we've got it on both CD and double LP (with digital download), the latter noteworthy for featuring all twelve of the songs that appear on the CD for the first time ever. Other than that, this new edition of
Human = Garbage is essentially identical to the original, ready to be rediscovered by a new generation of human-hating gutter punks. Here's my ancient write-up for the previous release on Life Is Abuse:
I remember when Dystopia's now classic 1994 debut
Human=Garbage came out, baffling hardcore kids and entrancing an entire generation of scuzz punks with their punishing, flanger-soaked psychedelic doomcrust. Pretty bizarre stuff at the time, and it's still got an odd, noisy vibe that remains pretty unique. This EP, now available direct from Life Is Abuse after being originally released on the defunct Common Cause imprint, still stands up as a completely fucked up and utterly antisocial blast of weird, bass-heavy sludge and drugged, punked-out psych-death roar, with huge down-tuned gunk riffs, fucking tortured seething vocals and intensely anti-human/anti-technology lyrics, shooting out gnarly negative energy like Buzzoven and Eyehategod, but juiced up on ripping West Coast hardcore. This collection (which now features both the original
Human=Garbage 12" tracks as well as the songs from the split LP with Embittered and the track from their split with Grief) is so full of abrupt, disorientating shifts in tempo and heaviness and possessed with an overall disturbed atmosphere, it amazes me that this band managed to get as popular as they did back in the 1990's; pretty much every single crustkid I knew absolutely
worshipped this band's brand of pulverizing, psychedelic crustcore. Crucial in the extreme hardcore canon, fans of fucked-up, damaged-hardcore heaviness from that era (alongside the likes of Man Is The Bastard, Gasp, Suffering Luna, etc.) can't go without this album. As they say, "
Love Earth - Hate People..."
