Society Sucker


Sorely underrated and overlooked outside of their home state of Virginia, Society Sucker played misanthropic and crushing hardcore in the style of Biohazard, Sheer Terror, and Breakdown. You know, music for intellectuals.

Typical for their area, the band featured several members of other Richmond and Virginia Beach bands like Iron Boots and Bracewar. The scene there was always really incestuous, which is a gross way of saying a lot of cool people were shared across a lot of cool bands. Bleh.

Anyway, Society Sucker called it quits in the mid-2000's, leaving behind only this five song demo, which is just a real assbeater. There are a few other bands with the name Society Sucker: a hardcore band from North Carolina and (I've been told) an Oi band from the UK, though I can't find any evidence of the latter.

You can download Society Sucker's 2005 demo at the link below. Make sure there's no old people or small children around when you hit play on your Zune. You might kill them with your mongrel idiot fist rage.
