Straight To Your Face - The Struggle
It’s been two years since Denmark-based Straight To Your Faced released an album, but the wait is over with the release of The Struggle. It’s an album of pure hardcore goodness with some of killer tracks such as ‘The Struggle’ and ‘Back In The Ring’. The songs come hard and fast with some slick grooves and sick sing along parts.
The band has a knack for writing catchy tunes so the album definitely doesn’t disappoint. Their style is heavily influenced by NYHC sound laced over with a hint of metal, not unlike bands like Madball, Terror or Backfire!. The songs are pretty much straight forward but they pack them with enough hooks to keep your attention all the time throughout the album. Thanks to superb work of Jakob Bredahl , the production is fat and heavy giving these songs even a bigger adrenaline boost. If you like your hardcore rough and without too much useless technical wankery, you should give this one a go.Review by Dloogi
