I’m always keeping my eyes peeled for a band that can mix a style that I like with one that I’m not very fond of. I really like heavy metal but punk I’ve always been a little shaky about, yet … Continue reading Tau Cross – Pillar of Fire
Personally, I’ve never really gone too deep into the world of punk or its extensions, but I’ve always respected it because of its place in the realm of metal and rock as well as being the source of many great … Continue reading Blood Division – Traitors to the Gallows
Of all the punk metal/crossover/whatever the fuck kind of bands these are that have come through me headset, it is easily Iron Reagan who take the crown as the absolute best. It’s their rhythms and uncompromising for anything that really … Continue reading Iron Reagan – Crossover Ministry
Personally, I’ve never been really into the world of grind or crust metal as they just always seem to be . . . too extreme for my liking. Don’t get me wrong, I like extreme, but how much is too … Continue reading Henry Kane – Den Förstörda Människans Rike
I’ve honestly never bee able to truly get into much about the greater part of the punk music scene despite multiple efforts, but no matter what Iron Reagan never ceased to entertain. A classic definition of what it means to … Continue reading Iron Reagan – A Dying World (single)
I’m not usually one for anything that’s got plenty of punk influence simply because to me a lot of bands’ attempts just sound like angsty kids who just want to vent some pent up steam. Kinda like how a lot … Continue reading Sister – Stand Up, Forward, March!
Oh Brazil, how you intrigue me so. The country that probably has the most tantalizing metal scene in the southern hemisphere of the world continues to pump out awesome bands to this day, and there does not seem to be … Continue reading John No Arms – Bar
Never been a huge fan of neither punk nor any sort of crust, but I’m not afraid to dabble in it every once in a while. I’m sure you may have already guessed at what type of band Rats of Reality is and what genre their latest album is, so I’m just gonna skip over that. “The Art of Debilitation” is a very nice, nice meaning raw in this case, album that only has 4 tracks but with over 12 minutes between them. Three of them are only about 2 1/2 minutes so there’s the punk influencing the song length, … Continue reading Rats of Reality – The Art of Debilitation
Irish hardcore punk band Burnchurch have an album coming out that is by far the best punk album that I’ve heard so far this year simply because of how raw and intense it is from beginning to end. Now as expected for most punk albums the songs are “short” with the longest being 3 minutes 20 seconds with the shortest being a minute 47 seconds, but that’s hardly a problem for me because as long as the songs are well done and badass, which they are, I can find something to enjoy out them and I did in excess. And … Continue reading Burnchurch (self-titled)
When most of us think of hardcore punk we think of the loud ass in-your-face vocals that some people love but other people can’t stand. This album was more on the positive side for me but it did have its flaws despite it overall being good for me. Personally I think “Ceremonia de Atadura de Manos” felt a bit off pace and it lacked a good feel to it during a few moments throughout the album even though the sound was solid for its majority. I’m not the biggest punk fan there is out there so I’ve never really heard … Continue reading Tarsius Tarsier – Ceremonia de Atadura de Manos
