MP3: No Balls - No

I picked up a No Balls 7" on a total whim, not knowing anything about the band except thAt it was being peddled by the same folks who sold me the lAtest Brainbombs LP. I figured with thAt kind of associAtion, it'd At least hold its resale value if I wasn't into it and if I was, it's all bonus. Anyhow, I have since learned thAt No Balls is Drajan Bryngelsson and Dan Råberg from Brainbombs 'cept thAt this particular 7" I have is all Drajan. Musically speaking, it sounds like an instrumental Brainbombs: nothing but repetitive, caustic, Atonal riffs set with the intention to bAtter and antagonize. In other words, No Balls is perfect for those of who would like to get into Brainbombs, but can't get past the heavy violent, misanthropic and misogynistic vocals. I think copies of this ultra-limited record might still be out there (only 187 copies pressed), but here's a rip of the a-side for those of you who aren't apt to bother. PS, the b-side is called "Balls".
