Scumpulse are a crusty black metal band from Edinburgh, all the way up in Scotland - that distant and mysterious land just above the flat and boring desperate shithole that is mainland England. Broken Reflection is a nifty little tape single (can't remember the last time I saw a tape single, I'll be honest) featuring two tracks ov blackened crust in the vein of Skeletonwitch-meets-Darkthrone-meets-Discharge (yeah that's a subgenre of crust now, okay?).
The title track is the A side here (who am I kidding, I streamed it on the fuckin' Bandcamp page). It is the faster of the two tracks; a lovely cider-swilling pace in fact, perfect for spilling the dreaded West-Country rot all over your friends as you mosh about during good times. The second track, "Hide" is a bit slower, but a lot more nuanced, with a savage vocal delivery and even a surprise guitar solo to round things off.
You can stream these lovely ditties from the band's Bandcamp page or get your grubby tobacco-stankin' fingers on a copy of the physical cassette, which is limited to 50 copies.
