Info
International crust is GO - Ale drinking crusty scumbags from the UK and USA sick of the lack of real crust after many years & beers of friendship decided that it had to be done and formed Alehammer, inspired by warhammer's raw tribute to hellhammer back in the 90s and the blistering attack of the old masters like discharge and the 80s/90s crust punk scene Alehammer was spewed from the very depths of ale, almost creating all the noise a day or even on the day of recording to keep the rawness, stop reading and just listen.
