CONSERVATIVE MILITARY IMAGE - FATAMISH
CONSERVATIVE MILITARY IMAGE (USA):
I once heard a saying about the hardcore scene and those who come into it: “Anyone can come, not everyone can stay.”
There’s no pretending that this scene can drive out the uninitiated masses who take the name a bit too lightly. It is in all respects a scene about acceptance and bonding but it is also a fact that many people just don’t have the skin for this thing we call hardcore. A band like Conservative Military Image serves up that attitude that many people may take too lightly then complain about it online. They’re a musical unit that takes you back to a time where one's grit and honor in the scene were forged nowhere else but on the dance floor.
The skinhead/Oi! scene in 2022 has been reclaiming its long established glory in the hardcore scene, with bands like Slugger, The Chisel, and Violent Way forgoing the current fixation on heavy ass riffs for tried and true punk riffage over hard tales of blue collar life. Despite only playing a handful of shows, Conservative Military Image has already recorded two EPs of raucous old-school hardcore punk, heavily focused on the lyricism of founder and sole songwriter Adam.

Up to this point, Conservative Military Image's writing and recording has been done entirely by Adam himself as a means to get the band up and going, a project he conceptualized in late 2020 but didn’t get off the ground until about February of this year.

FATAMISH (IT):
...were born in Brunico in 2014 out of the need to express dissent and criticism of society, although in an ironic way...
Their style is raw, without frills, a music certainly not for everyone, they appreciate sounds typical of metal and metalcore, to which those of hardcore are mixed, in which the voice of frontman Sebi is the master...
Fatamish screams mainly in English, but also in German and Italian, to make the listener aware of the ethnic-linguistic context to which they belong.
