Under One Flag posted their last recorded track

Message from the band:

"What Lies Ahead" was the last song we ever recorded and the only one with Chad on vocals. Our original singer Dustin was on the "Red" cd that came out on Double or Nothing when Chad was one of our original guitar players who also played guitar on "Red" Dustin left the band shortly before we did the tour with Furious Styles last spring and thats when Chad took over on vocals. "What Lies Ahead" was one of the new songs we started working on with Chad full time on vocals and we wanted to start doin more thrashy style stuff along the lines of Ringworm and Palehorse. This song is the perfect example of the last chapter of this band...go listen NOW to one of our best keep secrets.

Hard Work - Not One Step Back

Hard Work - Not One Step Back
Spook 2008

It was probably one of the most anticipated albums for 2008 for me. Now that that album has finally dropped, I can safely say it was worth waiting for. Not One Step Back burst of aggression and nerve.

Hard Work has been around for a couple of years but I would say this record seems to be special for them – it’s like a new lease of life for the band. No doubt, the tracks on this one are the best they ever recorded and the production is superior to anything before it. For those who don’t know, the band plays NYHC brand of hardcore with references to bands like Madball or Breakdown among others. They stick to the proven formula but put a lot of effort into song writing and there’s a surprising amount of variety to the songs. The riffs are thick and chuggy and backed by a powerful rhythm section and strong vocals. Majority of the time the band rely on fast and mid tempos but they throw in a good breakdown now and then. Most of the material is catchy and memorable and demonstrates the bands tight musical skills. Lyrically, they maintain a good balance between personal/real life topics and some slightly socio-critical stuff. Like I said, I’ve been waiting for this shit to be out and I can say I am not disappointed at all. I can guarantee that by the time you’ve listened to it a handful of times you’ll find yourself moshing around your room like crazy! This disc is simply not to be missed if you dig bands like Death Before Dishonor, Madball or Death Threat!
