As I stated before, Canada has great punk rock scene and 86 It are from Ottawa and this is their EP, this one is out for couple of months now, but deserves attention and listening. This band provides 6 songs of fast hardcore punk/skate punk with melodic punk thrown in there for good measure. Male and female dual vocals interplay perfectly in songs like my favorite ‘It’s Gonna Blow’, added to fast drums and guitar that sounds like all those old school California hardcore bands, this one crosses between Circle Jerks and Black Flag mixed with melodic punk parts. Lyrics deal with every day life, hope, coping with troubles and emotions, so every one can relate to that. This is a short one indeed, but remains in memory with songs like ‘Long Gone’ and ‘Always Better’. I would love to hear full length some time in the future if possible, that would be great. This one is free at name your price, so if you go download it free at least drop a word or two to the band if you like it, I am sure they will appreciate it.
