Downpresser is a band I followed from Perverted Justice through Age of Ignorance and now into the new record. The first two releases were good records but not very outstanding. It was good to listen to and had some solid jams but it never felt like records that you’ll remember forever. However, when the new … Continue reading »
Our album of the month is no less than Rotting Out’s The Wrong Way. Their 2013 full length and follow up of Street Prowl. This record is a true follow up, in sound and feel. It screams Los Angeles hardcore and takes Street Prowl and kicks it up a notch. The songs are rawer, old … Continue reading »

Where their previous full-length Root of All Evil was still a straight-up hardcore album, their new release features more musical variation. Album opener ‘Life Lines’ sounds … Continue reading »
John Coffey‘s brand new full length record Bright Companions is far from an average hardcore disc. As a matter of fact, I’m not sure if you can call it hardcore at all. The quintet from Utrecht, The Netherlands produces dirty rock ‘n roll, with a southern twist and a touch of screamo. It’s clear that … Continue reading »
It’s with great pleasure, that we’ve crowned While She Sleeps debut full length This Is The Six to album of the month.
