Mess Intercity
With all eyes seemingly on the international streetpunk scene during a time of boundless creativity, Guadalajara, Mexico punks MESS stand poised to make a global impact. Influenced by the classic sounds of Oi! and UK82, the band brings a raw but catchy sensibility to their street level rock 'n roll anthems, sung primarily in English, with some in Spanish as well. The 12 EP Intercity is the record that started it all for MESS. These five songs represent the opening salvo of what was to come, and it's easy to see why the band has only continued to rise in stature since its release. With a sound that is at once timeless, paying tribute to the classics of the early 80s, and possessed by the urgency and immediacy of the now, the band came out of the gate firing on all cylinders. True Love, Street Boys, and The Only Judge remain among the band's most popular working class rabble rousers, inspiring frenzied singalongs wherever they go. Originally released in Europe in 2020, Intercity is at last getting a worldwide release courtesy of Pirates Press Records, on a deluxe Picture Disc, no less! Alongside the breakthrough LP Under Attack, these re-issues will continue to spread the No fuss, pure MESS & impact sound far and wide.
