(Hardcore) Berlin’s R.O.S.A. introduces themselves with Ugly Boys, a debut single that’s less an anthem and more a confrontation. It’s the first track off their three-song demo EP, available digitally and backed by a DIY video that leans into the same raw tension the band channels sonically.
Vocalist Hassan Haider and the rest of the four-piece lineup previously played in bands like Patsy O’Hara, Empty Vision, Tackleberry, and Ratfeast. With this new project, they’re distilling their collective background into a fast, aggressive sound that draws comparisons to acts like Primitive Blast, Spy, and Jivebomb.
The approach is direct: short songs, harsh delivery, no embellishment. All three EP tracks were recorded, mixed, and mastered by Alexander Pusch at the Berlin studio Obscured By Evil. IDIOTEQ
In 2026 the four piece HC Outfit will release their first 12″/Album on This Charming Man Records.
