This Texas crew has been turning a lot of heads since their debut ep Welcome To Hell. Heavy, rough sounding hardcore fronted by gritty as the gravel vocals that could make likes of Merauder or Hatebreed proud, while puting their own twist on the proven formula with an occasional use of clean vocals. Usually my reaction would be 'what the fuck?', but somehow they pull it off. Seriously. No way it makes them look soft. In contrary, it only makes the hard parts sound harder and overall gives the music more depth than your average band in this weight category.
This new cut is a fucking monster, with band going at it real hardcore. The track comes with a tight groove and great riffing that gives it lots of dynamics, somewhere in the middle the fast part is straight up head-banging thrash and it all ends with a killer mosh part. It sounds like they really wanted to tap into new territories while maintaining that raw hardcore edge. All with a great effect. The new record will drop end of July, 'The Madness', BDHW Recs.
Wisdom In Chains, the band responsible for some of my all time favorite hardcore tunes. This is a type of band you will never most likely find yourself get tired of. Unconcerned about trends and fads, they always keep their standards high even if I dig some of their albums more than other.
This video is for When We Were Young which for me is a highlight of their recent album, hard-hitting hardcore with a healthy dose of nostalgia. That is the type of stuff I want to hear.
Paris, filthy Paris... I have no idea what's the story behind this clip, but some of the dance parts are fucking awkward. I can't even figure out if it's on purpose or not. I guess nowadays you can shot a better video with your phone, but back in the days it wasn't so easy Anyway, this is a classic tune in a true meaning of the world.
I'm still trying to figure out what's the point of watching live footage of hardcore show you haven't even been to. If I could only see myself doing any type of crazy stuff in there, like getting punched in the face or jumped on, that would make more sense.
This track is probably their best stuff to date. This, and the fact that Dre Stewart from the Donnybrook is submitting guest vocals, makes me seriously consider checking out their new album (Demons Run Amok). I did an interview with this band back in 2010.
Watching new videos done by these dudes makes me think I don't need to go to shows anymore. Just gonna kick back with potato chips, relax and enjoy the show. There's been a huge update on their site lately. Check out what else they got here, apart from Bitter End video above other footage include Foundation, Death Threat, Suburban Scum and more.
