Have No Heroes are relatively new band and they just released their new album. I listened and reviewed it for our zine.
The band was formed in 2016., they are hailing from Riga, Latvia and playing punkrock/skatepunk. There is intro plus eleven songs on this record. The music of this band has that melancholic, cold and grey touch in the songs, like cold waves of the sea and sunshine mixed altogether. The music is fast, melodic hardcore punk and it reminds me of a mixture between Satanic Surfers and Pennywise. The songs like Not Gonna Fall Today and What˙s Wrong With Us have that melancholic note I felt, but also give you hardcore strength and the inner will to continue fighting. One thing that I must put above all the rest on this album are beautiful vocals. I just love how the singer sounds and the guy has a wonderful voice and the backing vocal harmonies are nice too. Other songs that stand out in my opinion are Promises, Skin And Bones. Awesome job, awesome record! 8/10
Ever since the public reveal in February 2017 of Resolve’s debut single ‘Exposed‘, the Lyon, France based quartet has been eager to show their peer that they won’t settle for anything but greatness. Their strong work ethic and attention to details allowed them to open shows for Architects, Every Time I Die, While She Sleeps to name a few, all of that within the first few months of the band’s stammering career.
The four boys spent the rest of their first year as a band touring their home country as well as Europe and the UK, and unveiled music videos one after the other, fulfilling their initial plan of releasing a fully watchable record.
Summer of 2018 saw the release of another EP, Stripped Down Session, offering a different take on some of the songs from ‘Reverie‘, as well as their own interpretation of the classic Foo Fighters song ‘Best of You’. But this little acoustic venture was just a prelude to the imminent release of Resolve’s new lead single, the melody-driven ‘Carmela‘, a testimony to the band’s everlasting drive to push further their creative horizon.
This new track is called ‘Carmela’ and was written after the passing of our vocalist’s grandmother, Carmela Diliberto. More than a mourning song, the whole theme for it was the impact someone can have on your life, the ‘passing of the torch’ and the fear of yourself not leaving any lasting trace on your loved ones life.
‘When I’m gone, will someone miss me as much as I miss you?’
This is without a doubt the hardest we’ve ever worked on a single song, trying new things and aiming for different horizons, as well as doing everything ourselves, from the mixing to the video-making.
