BALCANES

Unsparing, scorched earth industrial punk from the northwest regions of Asturias, Spain.

‘Gloria Eterna’ (‘Eternal Glory’) is the new, debut album by the Oviedo-based trio Balcanes. Active since 2014, Balcanes have carved out brutal, enveloping incursions of exhilarating punk music across a series of cult singles and EPs. Sharpened by components of industrial, noise, power electronics, hardcore and doom, their output reaches new heights of concentrated ferocity on ‘Gloria Eterna’.
