Vietnamese Hardcore Act CUT LON Return With Ragin’ Third Full Length [Vietnam]

BROOOOOOOOOOO…we don’t even know how to tell you how sick it’s been to watch Vietnamese band, Cut Lon‘s, trajectory from the day they began as a literal Pikachu-wearing crossover thrash band, to an abrasive yet emotional full on Converge-esque-blast beat-powerviolence-wall of aggression! Check out the band’s third full length streaming below.

This is how the band introduced the new full length:

“Our 3rd album “Dzữa” is out NOW!! Featuring 7 new songs that were written between January and July this year.

The sound is somewhat close to our previous release “Bắc Thảo”, although it definitely went further towards the darker colors. The vocals are harsher, the guitar sounds even more dissonant and abrasive and the language in the lyrics is raw, visceral, and direct. Listening to “Dzữa” feels like a violent storm – cathartic, turbulent, but strangely beautiful beneath the noise.

The album is available on bandcamp and YouTube starting from today. It will eventually become available on all other platforms – probably, in just a couple of days. We will also release it on cassettes in the second half of October and we also plan to restock “Bắc Thảo” and “Xào Ke” cassettes – all with improved recording quality.”

Lyrically, the band added:

“The lyrical approach on this album follows what we did on “Bắc Thảo” as well – the text in each song is like poetry in a sense that it was crafted to have the same feel with the music and we used a lot of poetic instruments when writing it. So, just like on the last album, it is open for interpretations!

Here’s the interpretation that our good friend Bomb has: “This album is a mukbang gone wrong. First you eat hột vịt dzữa (song 1), then your stomach ngoắng (song 2), you feel mãn (song 3), you go another egg and it’s hột vịt ung this time (song 4). You cannot finish it and it becomes nguội (song 5). You pass out, then you are sent to a hospital and spend the night there. Then, the next morning, you have to tell the doctor what happened hôm qua (song 6) and while being under the treatment, you observe the sunset during một chiều (song 7)”.”

MAD.
