SLANDER / KIDS INSANE 12" split out in May followed up by an Italian release tour

UK's Tangled Talk records is gonna release a 12" split featuring Italy's Venice "not California" resident SLANDER and Israel's Tela Viv based KIDS INSANE, on May 11th 2015.
Both bands are getting heads turned among the punk hardcore scene and working their asses off, playing and touring driven by a true and good spirit since day one, and this cool vinyl split is sleeved into an eye catching old-school style artwork.

Slander has shot a fun packed video clip for the song "Give All" taken off the split, which they're spreading all around the web.

The bands will be hitting the road for an Italian release tour kicking off in Milano on May 8th and touching these cities:  Venezia, Verona, Bologna, S. Benedetto del Tronto, Bari, Pesaro, Mantova. The tour wraps up on May 17th.

Read on some lines from the record label:

Emerging from a country that has seen more than it’s fair share of hardship and a hardcore scene that is flourishing in the face of adversity, Kids Insane are a band that truly encapsulate what it means to be punk – voicing political opinions no matter how controversial, and set to a tirade of dense hardcore riffs and frantic drums.

The five track record epitomises the spirit of punk, with lyrics that depict a corrupt justice system, being beaten by the cops in the street and at hardcore shows, experiencing the monotony of election after election whilst watching winning politicians merely “oil the gears of this crooked machine”. At least those are the experiences of Kids insane, and that’s what their incredible brand new tracks Dear Politics and Just Ice relate to.

Kids Insane met Matteo from Slander in 2013, when he offered the band a show in Venice, where they got to witness first hand the thriving Italian hardcore movement. It was then that they decided to team up to release a split 12” record and embark on an ambitious release tour around Italy together.

Slander’s fierce breed of old-school hardcore punk references the Venice hardcore scene that has seen them grow, whilst calling out the fakers on the EP's debut single Give All: “The song ends with the line “only suckers give up”. That’s because there are many people that walk through this musical scene like actors across a stage. All they do is get in, talk and get out. That stuff don’t apply to us. This movement is all we got…”
