Crowned Kings to relese 'Wise Guy'

One of Australia's most exciting hardcore bands right now, Crowned Kings, are working on their debut full length, Wise Guy. The band still hasn't found a label to release it, but they hope it's gonna drop in the upcoming months. The band also plans to play Australia and Asia once the album is out. According to the band; "Musically we have progressed as a band it has been two years since we dropped our demo and when we dropped that we had only been a band for a few months so expect a different sound more flow and faster bouncer and tougher riffs and a lot to say." If you're into bands like Madball, Terror, Agnostic Front, Blood For Blood, 50 Lions and such you definitely should keep your eyes open for this album!

Details about upcoming EP from Rise After Defeat

Rise After Defeat (Italy) has started working in its new EP. Here's official info taken from their website: "So, this monday will start the recording of our new Ep @ Hell Smell Studio (Rome). Title, tracklist, artwork and more will be published at the end of recording sessions. For the moment we can say that for this Ep with our label we’ve decided to say fuck off to the music business and put it available as a free digital download. We don’t give a fuck to sell records, we wanna only touring europe as much as we can, and we think that putting this new record in free download is the best way to spread our words. A limited cd edition of 100/200 copies will be released via StrikeDown for our upcoming European tour with our swedish mates Ignominy. The tour re-stock cds will be available on StrikeDown store for purchasing after the end of tour, for anyone that would like have it also in physical version."

Tirade - 2011 Demo

I have recently posted an interview with the guys so I’ll spare any long introduction by just saying that Tirade reps London hardcore and consists of couple of local scene veterans. The band takes a lot from mean and raw 90’ style combining hardcore vitality with heavier groovy sections. The vocals are harsh and relentless and the songs are pretty well put together, mostly played at mid-tempo speeds without any pressure to be too fancy and never going too much over the top. That’s what works for me as the general feeling is ok and I can relate to the anger they want to express through these songs. I hope to hear more from this band! Download!
