LiFE // Destruct - To Stop The Conflict [Split LP] 2024

Tokyo originators LiFE have focused their noisy frantic crustcore with a metallic darkness, pushing into abstract territories that only masters of the craft can pull off. These tracks are a frenetic onslaught informed by over 30 years of passion and strong message. LiFE is one of the last standing bands from this original scene in Japan and this shows they are as raging as ever. DESTRUCT rolls in like a tank surveying the scorched earth. Fist pumping and menacing, but creative within strict genre confines, giving their message an immediacy and power that it deserves. One of the best hardcore punk bands out there playing this brutal style. The beautiful art inked by Xavier Rekkaen points at the duality inherent in the band names and the concept of conflict on an elemental level. Legendary split between generations.

LiFE Hardcore / Crust / Punk from Tokyo, Japan.

Destruct D-Beat / Raw Punk From Richmond, Virginia.

if this comic resonated with you, it would mean the world to me if you donated to this palestinian family's escape fund.

no creative notes because this isn't that kind of comic.

I know I don’t owe any of you anything but I still felt compelled to write about my long term absence. And I feel far enough away from the dangerous spot I was in to be able to make this comic. I have a therapist now, and she agreed that making this could be a very cathartic gesture, and the start of properly leaving these thoughts behind me. I am still, at seemingly random times, blindsided by fleeting desires to kill myself. They’re always passing urges, but it’s disarming, and uncomfortable. I worry sometimes that my brain’s spent so long thinking only about suicide that it’s forgotten how to think about anything else. Like, now that I've opened that door for myself, I'll never be able to fully shut it again. But I’m trying my best to encourage my mind in other directions. We'll see how that goes.

I am still donating all proceeds from my store to Palestinian causes. So far, I've donated over $15K, not including donations coming from my own pocket or the fundraising streams which jointly raised around $10K. In the time since I made my initial post about where this money would be going, the focus has shifted from aid organisations to directly donating to escape funds.

If you'd like to do the same, you can look at Operation Olive Branch, which hosts hundreds of Palestinian escape funds or donate to Safebow, which has helped facilitate the safe crossing and securing of important medical procedures for over 150 at-risk palestinians since the beginning of the genocide.

you haven't seen your ex in years and you want to show him how over him you are, but oh no, he went from a nerdy out-of-his-depth twunk to action hero GILF (grunkle i'd like to *REDACTED*)
