The cleverly named Britney's Pierce is another short-lived band formed in Čakovec, Croatia, active in the year 2000. Channeling the raw intensity of early ‘90s French screamo (think Anomie, Jasemine, and Fingerprint), they played an emotional, politically charged brand of hardcore that centered around vegan straight edge ideals and animal rights advocacy. 

Despite their very brief existence, they never had an official recording to begin with. In fact, they only either recorded a demo or a session release that contains 6 untitled songs. Given that the band dropped nothing but these tunes, it's fair to say that they didn't last that long.

On Guranjeslitice's YT channel the first song was listed as two separate songs, but i don't think that way. The intro and the rest of the other half feel connected to each other, and that's more than enough for me to know what they're packing for.

Indeed, this is a forgotten screamo band - a short-lived yet passionate burst of emotion, now buried as a relic in the annals of underground screamo history.

----------

Duhovito nazvani Britney’s Pierce bio je još jedan kratkotrajni bend nastao u Čakovcu, Hrvatska, aktivan 2000. godine. Kanalizujući sirovu intenzivnost ranog francuskog screamo talasa s početka devedesetih (setite se Anomie, Jasemine i Fingerprint), svirali su emotivni, politički nabijen hardcore fokusiran na vegan straight edge ideale i borbu za prava životinja.

Uprkos kratkom životu, bend nikada nije objavio zvanično izdanje. Zapravo, snimili su samo demo ili sesijski materijal od šest neimenovanih pesama. Pošto im je to jedini trag, jasno je da nisu dugo opstali.

Na Guranjeslitice YT kanalu prva pesma je navedena kao dve odvojene numere, ali ja to tako ne vidim. Uvod i nastavak su povezani, i to je više nego dovoljno da se oseti šta su želeli da prenesu.

Zaista, Britney’s Pierce ostaju kao zaboravljeni screamo bend — kratkotrajan, ali strastven nalet emocija, sada zakopan kao relikvija u anale underground screamo istorije.
