As I like to say, this hardcore band lives between two worlds. You will probably wonder how and why? Well, the guys picked up in their music the best from both worlds. First one is old school hardcore world with hardcore from the 90-ies leaning more towards punkrock roots influenced songwriting, streetpunk smart attitude and riffs. The second world is modern urban hardcore with breakdowns, metalic sounding hooks and screamed and shouted vocals topped with gang singalong backing vocals. There are 8 songs on this album, one of them having guest performance by Josh from Tempest. The lyrics are in English and as I read them while listening they are mostly personal about love, loss, life and friendship, also inner demons of the psyche. This is energetic and good hardcore record. Support the hardcore scene worldwide and get and try this album.
