Download: Sabotage - Demo II

Violent and chaotic hardcore with a dirty sound and disorted vocals. Some fucked up tunes, if you ask me, but it has some appeal. It's fast, but also got some cool breakdowns. Not the music I usually dig, but it's not bad. If you like it, you can order tape from Climbin' Aboard Records. Tape artwork is brilliant, worth having on your shelf. Download it!

The Last Stand - The Time Is Now

This is the shit right here. Dudes from Inhuman and Shutdown are back with new band and it rips. Armed with Mike’s distinct voice and group of guys who obviously know how to play hardcore, there’s enough talent and dedication here to make everyone excited. No surprisingly, there’s definitely a classic NYHC vibe here and the band definitely nailed down the anger and intensity of the genre. Perhaps, a good mixture of Built To Last’s vitality and Start Today’s positive vibe, with a dose of Age of Quarrel’s aggressive tone is a good way of summing up this album. It’s catchy, upbeat, and perfectly blends punk rock with hardcore to bring back the street element of the music.

Download: Cross Me - Demo 2013

Milwaukee's Cross Me brings thrash-ridden type of hardcore with solid grooves and manacing riffs. I’m getting some Expire meets Suicidal Tendencies sound on these tracks. Serious business and no frills. The vocals are seriously pissed off and sound like the guys wants fuck someone up good. Expect to hear news of them signing to one of your favorite hardcore labels sometime soon. Download it!

New Blood: Hollow Truth

Hollow Truth from Dublin brings all the good elements of thrash and hardcore, which results in nothing but a crushing crossover sound that brings to mind a mix of Cro-Mags and Metallica. I have recently posted their demo and judging by the number of downloads, kids dig this stuff. So, check out the interview with the dudes while listening to the demo. And if they’re ever playing show in your area, make sure you show your support!

Download: Brainwreck - Words to the Wise

One of the few bands from South Africa I know. Not as good as Bloodline Ltd, but pretty rad anyway. Because of the Fury Of V song, I was expecting something heavier, but it actually has more traditional sound. 3 tracks, all of them no longer than 2:30, most of the time groovy. The music reminds me of No Turning Back, though it never really gets too fast. All in all, hardcore comes from many places and it's good to keep that worldwide unity thing alive. Plus, Brainwreck got a killer band name and are good at their craft! Download!
