Pulling Teeth "Bloodwolves" MP3 up now on Deathwish website. Pre-order of the new album has started. The first 300 Pre-orders will receive a copy of Pulling Teeth's "Witches Sabbath 05" 7"EP for FREE. The only way to get this 7"EP is through this Pre-order, so be sure to order now to better your chances of getting this rare 7"EP..."Paranoid Delusions | Paradise Illusions" is the latest work from Baltimore hardcore mainstays, Pulling Teeth. Painstakingly recorded and engineered by Chris Camden at Ultrasound over a three month period, "Paranoid Delusions | Paradise Illusions" is a conceptual piece of immense artistic depth and darkness.
Songs like the bruising "Unsatisfied" dig deep to reveal monstrous dirges that rival any doom metal artist. While the Slayer influenced "Bloodwolves" is as volatile and infectious as a song can be. Though the aforementioned songs are truly brilliant works, it is Pulling Teeth's new found mastery of emotional ebb and flow which shines as their real strength. This awe inducing quality is revealed in the stunning two title tracks, "Paranoid Delusions | Paradise Illusions". Collectively both songs are a monumental achievement of soulful guitar work, Moog driven textures, and insightful prose. A near perfect example of how a band can evolve without abandoning the heart and raw energy that defines the "hardcore/punk" genre at its very core.
The "Witches Sabbath" 7"EP series by Pulling Teeth features musical tributes/renditions of the bands which have influenced Pulling Teeth since their inception. The musical content of each 7"EP in the series remains secret and unlisted on the minimal packaging of each release. The only way to find out what song(s) are on your 7"EP is by experiencing it for yourself.

The new Ep entitled "Beleive in This" takes straight up hardcore, mixes some new school beatdown and adds some punky flavor to it. The new ep showcases the bands talent,and is a big step up from the previous release.From its catchy riffs and funny song titles such as "You said give me space so I gave you NASA" and "We write beatdowns not breakdowns",to the melodic melodies and brutal breakdowns one thing is for sure this is one ep you won't forget.Born To Hate - S/T
Born To Hate - S/TCruzade/Fragment Music, 2008
I hope most of you have read the interview with Born To Hate I posted some time ago. If not, I’ll give you brief run down on the band. They’re from Spain, took their name from one of the Death Threat’s songs and after struggling for couple of years with line up changes, last year they finally released their first MCD. And, if it’s of any importance to you, it’s a 100% female hardcore band.
If you think girls can’t mosh, Born To Hate is gonna prove you wrong, and it’s gonna do it hard way! First song, A Sangre Fuego, gets things started with mid tempo passage before exploding into raging hardcore that dominates the majority of the album. Most of the songs are fast paced and aggressive but they do make use of a nice breakdown now and then. I appreciate the fact they are keeping the music straight-forward, no gimmicks. These girls obviously learned their hardcore licks from the bands like Agnostic Front and early Cro Mags, but their music also have a nice punk touch to it. Born To Hate’s debut does have a small flaw, however. It took me some time to get used to vocals. It’s not because it’s a girl’s voice, it’s just a shouting way of singing and I’m not much into it in general. I think they need to work on this aspect on their next effort. Beside that, this is pretty good CD. It's worth a few spins if you're in the mood for some straight forward shit.
