Metal Anarchy

Time for the next edition of Metal Anarchy’s “new music showcase,” the feature where I introduce you to artists that readers of this site may find interesting. This time I have a Q&A with Sickrecy.

METAL ANARCHY: Tell me a little about your band:

SICKRECY: We are a grindcore band inspired by the late 80’s, early 90’s extreme music scene but without being “retro´´. We believe in strong riffs and choruses that people can remember. I think that we are more about a traditional song structure than many of the extreme bands today and hailing from Sweden i guess that you can call it ABBA grind, hahahaha.

METAL ANARCHY: Who are your main influences?

SICKRECY: It’s not so much about who, it’s more about the era that we all grew up in. The time around 87-93 was a great melting pot of everything extreme and that influenced us a lot. I think that it shows in our music. Lyric wise it’s all punk stuff. I think that if you got a voice you should speak it and with all the horrors around the world today i think that it’s even more important to speak against injustices, genocide, authoritarian fascist beliefs.

METAL ANARCHY: What is your latest release and why should readers of this site check it out?

SICKRECY: We have just released a brand new split 7inch vinyl together with the Austrian grind machine Distaste (which is a killer) and our songs were out on all streaming services on June 6 together with a video for the track ‘Last In Line.’ If you are a fan of death metal and crust punk infused grindcore this one is definitely for you. Kind of old school but never retro.

METAL ANARCHY: What can people expect when they go to your live shows?

SICKRECY: A band that brings energy and joy and to the stage. If you want shoe gazing and depressing characters I strongly suggest that you pick another band than ours to watch.

METAL ANARCHY: Where do you see your band heading in 5 years?

SICKRECY: By then I hope that we have dropped our third album and that we play more shows and festivals. I also hope that people still think that we are relevant and that we bring quality music to the audience.
