Bone-racked spazzes with limp handshakes

About Me

Pronounced "ZEN-yuh GO-lahv." Furious hardcore punk strongly influenced by Swedish d-beat and balls-to-the-wall rock 'n' roll. The pissed determination of '80s and '90s American hardcore reborn. Acerbic, honest lyrics. Formed from the smoldering, smelly ashes of Malakoi, also ex-John Cop and the Donuts and current members of Ashtray Dirt and Anchorage.
Our self-titled 7" will be out this winter... still looking for someone to release it. Six songs of moral indignation and face-melters.
