Heavy damaged rawk from San Diego with a strong mix of modern hardcore ‘ala Cursed, Wolfbrigade, Converge & the meaner sounding 1st wave “emo” bands. (The real shit not the “sideways haircut /Myspace” b.s.), Kiss It Goodbye & Unsane. Interesting stuff that doesn’t take long to get into & is worth your time.
(((1))) Slow, drum & feedback laden, slow rawker with obsessive vocals.
((((2))))) Thundering, bursts out in a hardcore rage with shouted vocals.
(((((3)))))) Great thrashy riff with more shouted & gnarly vocals. Melodic meanderings that don’t take away from the awesomeness of this tune.
((((4)))) Gritty & varied yet also short.
((((((5)))))) Teeth gnashin’ rawkin’ heavy modern hardcore & rawk to the utmost then the 2nd part is slower but still potent.
(((6))) Slow, worn-down electric folk thingy. Interesting.
(((((7))))) Big heavy riffs with a lotta thud & bass.
Meanest song ever with a jukebox reference.
((((((8))))) Uppity & bangin’ hardcore with some 90’s D.C. scene type moves.
(((((((9)))))) Fast, blazing thrashy (but not thrash as in metal so much) & rippin'.
((((10)))) Mid-paced pounder that has a lotta bass and more shouted vocals.
((((((11)))))) Slow twangy into big ass, thick riffs. Totally anguished & doomed sound that would totally slay live.
