Opening with some acoustic guitar; a little discordant but intriguing, it draws you in. The bass adds depth, then after about 20 seconds the electric guitar kicks in. The adrenaline starts pumping; the rhythm suckers you in, and then Ben’s vocals smack you round the chops. A direct punch in the face, an uncompromising raw screaming energy.
These London-based punk rockers pump out a powerfully raw, uncompromising energy. Musically; after the bombastic opening, things ease up a little, comparatively speaking. The vocals still scream out, and irrespective of the lyrics just want to tear you a new one. “Unclear” opens up just as energetic; the rhythm and tempo don’t let up yet still drag you in, as Ben punctures your consciousness with “I Won’t Give Up”.
Closing with “Walls” you cannot help but feel a sigh of relief. The end is nigh, you can take rest from the onslaught! The EP will try its best to beat you into submission, one mosh-pit you may not come back from!
This is one hell of an EP; powerful, loud, and will take no prisoners. 13 minutes of sheer energy. If you like it loud check it out. This is a powerhouse of addictive melodic hardcore.
