Just a heads up : After a lot of listens to this norwegian masterpiece i finally made the conclusion that if you had your speakers loud this stuff becomes fuzzy, so i re-extract it... take care
-mikxxx...
This is my first rip, out of vinyl... and i'm feeling a little bit weird, hope that i did everything perfect. My "totalrecorder" program has no split tracks option that's why you get side a and side b, sorry... Please listen to it and leave comments if the sound it's ok...
So, here is the long awaited extract of one of the most perfect albums ever came out of the motherland of black metal, but here you will get nothing like that...
I.O.U. is the perfect hardcore punk band consisting of five individuals : kristian, dagger, ozzak, gundersen and vegard. Five alienated Culture Industry employees rising from the ashes of the fine Norwegian hardcore acts Kids Like Us (their truth alone triumphs ep is so fucking awesome...), Crash and The Union Policy.
They had released two seveninches (i'm still looking for "under filthy wings" you fuckers) and a fucking lp-hurricane, this one! They had toured Europe four times and played tons of shows in their home country Norway. The LP/CD "I Owe You" was released last year as a split release by five diy labels (Dead Letter Records, Analemma Records, Kontrabande Records, Asyl Vinyl and Black Soul Family Records) so go and buy it...
This is the best album i have heard for a long time and (think that) came to my hands almost by coincidence...
A blistering combination of early us hardcore alongside some crusty and melodic parts. think how TRAGEDY would sound if they played ONLY covers of NEGATIVE APPROACH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Do you want to hear anything more? And at their my(as)space, in the section "influences", you can read : Negative Approach, Minor Threat, Black Flag, Los Crudos, Tragedy, No Parade, From Ashes Rise....
The new must-be-loved band by d-bill (i think...)

Every rock is an I.O.U (download)
Dbill driven crazy :
This is I.O.U, and they are Mikexxx's new obsession. The guy never stops talking about them!!
He talked about them when we went for a cup of coffee, he talked about them while we went for a hot pizza, he talked about them while we were at an antifascist demonstration...hell, he even wouldn't stop talking about them while we were chased by the fucking pigs (or was that Skitkids?)!!!!!!!
I avoid going to the bathroom in fear that Mike will come out of the toilet and start ranting about the ''under filthy wings'' ep...no really, it's like some plague that hits your friend, and you wish he gets well, but then again...if it made him shut up...!!!!! (just joking Mike...please don't kick me out of the blog!!)
On to the Norwegian posse now...This is hardcorepunk, and indeed it's a mix between old american hardcore and the more modern hardcore/crust wave. It gives a feeling akin to Endstand (mostly cause of the sound and the mix of old hardcore with melodies), though they don't sound really similar. The tracks fly by like a jet plane on fire, and the tunes make you wanna pogo like a norwegian salmon fish leaping out of the river!!! I'd prefer a more ruff 'n' tough production, but it seems that i get used to their (a bit) polished production the more i hear the LP (am i turning soft at the age of 25?).
Download it cause i don't know how Mike will react if the downloads don't reach 100!!!!...Also they are really good (if you really need more motivation to press on the download link...)..
