Kiper is a hardcore punk band from Zagreb that has been active for over 15 years. To date, they have released two albums and four EPs, and their sound roars along a path that connects melodic and abrasive hardcore punk, reminiscent of bands like Naked Raygun, Hüsker Dü, and Descendents. With their sharp lyrics in their native language, they also draw comparisons to the early works of Hladno pivo and Fakofbolan, both prominent figures in the Croatian punk scene.
Kiper’s Aksiom is a dynamic and powerful record that cements the band’s place as one of the most significant voices in Croatian hardcore punk. The album is fast, aggressive, and full of the kind of punk rock energy that’s impossible to ignore. At the same time, it’s a record that doesn’t shy away from complexity, with a blend of melody, social commentary, and emotional depth. Fans of hardcore punk will find much to appreciate in Aksiom, and for those who are already familiar with Kiper, it’s a solid and exciting addition to their discography.
With Aksiom, Kiper proves that they’re not just a band playing fast and loud — they’re a band with something to say. The album is both an extension of their punk roots and a reflection of their growth, solidifying their position in the scene for years to come.
