Jellicoe & Woodbury - Fear B/W Doubt

These back to back belters reference the style of hardcore punk that calls out in bloody protest, harkening Insane Youth's 'Not Give a Damn' and Anti-Cimex's 'Scandinavian Jawbreaker'. The dogs snarl without mercy or respite offering soaring solos, a bleak outlook, a big bass tone and pummeling drums. Over exhilarating guitar density and hoarse bark, Jellicoe and Woodbury chase, dismantle, and advocate obliteration of mankind. Jellicoe and Woodbury are the twin dogs of Doubt and Fear, a poetic interpretation of James Joyce's 'Ulysses', where dogs seemingly are ready to attack at any moment, based on Joyce's well known fear of dogs. Doubt and Fear channel 'Ulysses' through a Bastard 'Wind of Pain' like lens. These self-created monsters use capitalism to keep us afraid to really move forward in life, and scared to connect with each other. They chase us back and 'breath down our neck'. Recorded in Toronto by some weathered but familiar statues in the Toronto punk community. To compliment the style, as well as the in depth and swirling world of these characters, legendary Japanese hardcore punk artist Sugi has manifested these two dramatic tracks for the front cover of the record.
