Above All Glory are relatively new band from Hamburg, Germany, and this is their new record which I had the pleasure of listening and reviewing for this webzine.

Formed in 2016.these guys have been active playing live and sharing stages with such names as Get Dead or Useless ID. Of course, that would mean nothing without playing awesome music! This German trio plays a mixture of fast skatecore with the melody of pop punk and they sound like the 90-ies Epitaph of Fat Wreck Chords bands transformed and evolved for the 21st century. The e.p. contains 5 songs with anthemic and epic melodies, sing along choruses and fast and energetic punkrock at times chilled with some mid tempo emotional melodic punk. I am repeating myself, but I will say it again, the vocals mean a lot to me while listening bands like this, and the vocals on this record are superb, the singer sometimes reminds me of Croatian melodic punk band Fraktura Mozga. Not on every song but often in some parts.  The backing vocals and harmonies are full and to the point here. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this record and if you are a fan of such music, and I of course am, get this record! Top song: “Hunt the Hunter” although it has a riff in which I constantly heard “Basket Case” by Green Day for some seconds, but that is only me.

8/10
