Brigata Vendetta are primed to release The Disease and the Cure 12” on Pirates Press Records, the much-anticipated follow-up to the 2024 LP This is How Democracy Dies.Brigata Vende tta are a force to be reckoned with in the famed Bay Area punk & hardcore scene. What began as an intentionally more hardcore-focused side project for frontman & bassist Darrel Wojick & guitarist Mike Caputo became their prime outlet during the time Oi! stalwarts Harrington Saints were playing less regularly. Bum City Saints drummer Brian Zobel completed the trio.Combining the raw urgency of classic hardcore with the drive of circle pit streetpunk, the Brigata Vendetta sound is that of unrelenting rage against the power structures of the modern world, the malicious villains that pull the strings, and their footsoldiers. And how has that sound evolved since the first LP? If anything, both the lyrics and the music have gotten heavier & darker, reflective of a world of chaos & iniquity. The songs are more intricate without sacrificing speed or aggression.Over a relentless beat, lead single “Modern Sins” spits out its lyrics with disgust. Darrel says it is about “this upside down world we are living in. Any empathy or compassion is seen as weakness or ‘woke,’ and being a bully, blowhard, or bootlicker is seen as some sort of strength.” He goes on to add that the song is both a wake up call and a rallying cry. “This shit is all by design...because it benefits the elite. We should really start thinking we don't need to fucking live like this.”If you’ve felt the seething fury at the greed & brutality we are all subjected to on a daily basis, then the 8 songs on The Disease and the Cure are for you.Vinyl pressing info: 500 x 12" Evergreen Vinyl w/ Black Splatter & Silkscreened B-Side Tracklist:SIDE A01.
