Dispraised is back with “Lines in the Dirt”. For those not familiar with them, Dispraised is an international punk band built around the collaborative duo of vocalist Tom Mong and guitarist Donovan de Necker. Their mutual interest in punk music and their faith led them to work on something special for the Christian punk community.

In 2020 they independently released a mini-EP, “Same God Modern World”. Before taking on their next recording project, they fired the drum machine and recruited live drummer, Justin Ram (Grave Robber, Jericho Harlot). The trio recorded and released their debut album “Moral Rot” on Rottweiler Records in 2021 (Our review is here). Less than a year later, they released “Lines in the Dirt.”

The first couple of seconds was all it took to get me slamming into anyone nearby. It is rowdy, it is fast, it is unapologetic. The music feels old-school but with a proto-speed metal twist with the guitar riffs and the raging drums. Instruments provide musical texture for the lyrics to be yelled out with the welcome occasional instrumental break. It felt like I was in a car driven recklessly through side streets of a city holding on for dear life!

Loud Christian Punk Rock Band Dispraised Releases Two-In-One Album Exclusively on 12″ Vinyl, “The Dog Days Of Dissidence”

Loud Christian hardcore punk band Dispraised are back with a double album release on one 12″ Vinyl Records through Coleiosis Records. For this release they have moved to Coleiosis Records. More about this choice they will explain in the statement below….

We’ve fully expected the response and questions we’ve been getting concerning the new LP being released on Coleiosis Records and our relationship with Rottweiler Records. So here’s the juicy drama and ultra hot take on it all.
There is none.

Our contract with Rottweiler is up and we have decided to part ways with the label. There’s no hot takes, no issues, no drama. We signed a contract under the previous owner of the label, back when it was based out of Indiana. We had personal ties to the label owner and he was willing to take the risk of giving us a chance and the opportunity to release two albums in a 3 year time span under the label. In 2021 “Moral Rot” was released and we hit the ground running. 2022 came along and we released ”Lines in the Dirt”. Rights to those two albums are still owned by Rottweiler according to our contract until 2026, which means they will continue to promote, sell and distribute those releases for another 4 years and we fully expect them to carry and distribute those projects to all of you up until that time. They are a group of professionals and they’ll handle those albums in that matter.

Dispraised to Release New Album “Lines in the Dirt”

Dispraised was birthed by two friends on opposite sides of the world. Donovan de Necker (South Africa) and Tom Mong (Idaho, USA) first began talks of creating the project back in 2017. As two guys with lengthy backgrounds in the punk rock and live music scene, the two of them agreed that they could make something very different and very special for Christian punk rock fans to enjoy.

And so Dispraised was born. Following up from their debut full-length album “Moral Rot” released earlier in the year, the 3 piece outfit are now set to release the next album “Lines in The Dirt” on September 9th via Rottweiler Records.

“Lines in The Dirt” is a project that captures and channels the cutting snark, criticism and outright attitude of some of the most renowned punk rock bands in music history. Dispraised holds nothing back and channels the aggressive anti-PC stance of such legendary punk/hardcore legends as Fear, Black Flag and the Bad Brains. The difference is Dispraised‘s lyrics come from a faith filled Christian stance and are firmly rooted in scripture. Donovan‘s guitar riffs, Justins Aggressive drumming paired with Toms snarling vocals and thought provoking lyrics make “Lines in the Dirt” a truly one of a kind project, for fans of the spirit and sound of Punk Rock that aims to examine a flawed world.

Introducing: Decaying Martyr (Members of Dispraised): First Single ‘Unholy Cremation’ Released

Decaying Martyr is the new Death Metal side project from Thomas Mong, otherwise known as Thomas Dispraised of the Rottweiler Records punk rock band Dispraised. The project is pieced together by many members of the Christian death metal and punk scenes

We consider ourselves to be a Death Metal, Thrash and Grind band that’s focus is centered on that old school metal feel that made your mother scared when she caught you listening to Deicide, Obituary or even Slayer and Anthrax. Decaying Martyr takes extreme metal back to a feel good time when bands were less interested in their social media numbers and more interested in how to create the fastest, meanest and scariest sounding metal that they could create.
