Settle The Score - Back To The Streets
MindTransplant 2008

I remember the first time I’ve heard Settle The Score it was on their demo tape released on their own label, Spill The Blood. Damn, how heavy it was! Now, few albums and splits later, this band is still going strong and heavy.

Settle The Score strikes back with renewed energy and nerve. As with their previous records, you can expect a lot of adrenaline fueled hardcore. I know it’s nothing groundbreaking, but you just can’t deny they got some serious power in their songs. The whole album marches on with aggressive vocals, heavy riffing and highly moshable grooves. The best songs are Welcome To My Crew and Family, which happen to be the opening and the closing tracks. First one is heavy stomping hardcore with crushing riffing and solid rhythms. A very good album opener. The later one has a crazy hook in the chorus that immediately sets it apart. One thing I noticed is that with every record they seem to pick up a pace a little and lean towards more NYHC style. Breakdowns are few and far between but it’s a change for a better in my opinion. The production is clear with every instrument easily audible making it easy to hear what's going on, but at the same time it’s thick and juicy. Overall, this is a good album, played as tight and forceful as it should be in this type of music.

Hatebreed to release cover album

Official press release:

Hardcore metal leaders Hatebreed are set to release their long-awaited new covers album, For The Lions, on Tuesday May 5th, 2009 via E1 Music (formerly KOCH Records). This new release is the follow-up to the band's #1 Billboard charting DVD, Live Dominance (released September of 2008).

The songs on For The Lions were carefully selected by Hatebreed to represent a panoramic view of some of their favorite artists and greatest musical inspirations. Having completed the album in 2008, the band felt their work wasn't done yet and just returned to the studio with original guitar player Wayne Lozinak to record additional tracks for the album. The four new covers are among the most bludgeoning the band has yet to record. These include, "Ghosts Of War" (Slayer), "Supertouch/Shitfit" (Bad Brains), "Thirsty" (Black Flag) and "Suicidal Maniac" (Suicidal Tendencies).

For The Lions was produced, engineered and mixed by long-time band associate Chris "Zeuss" Harris. For a preview of "Suicidal Maniac," visit www.myspace.com/Hatebreed.

The complete track listing for For The Lions is to include the following covers:

Slayer – Ghosts of War
