Layback are from south London area and this is their latest e.p. containing five songs. What to expect here? This is pretty raw old school street hardcore, fast and furious with angry shouting vocals, but with also a touch of melodic hardcore, skate punk and metallic influence in the song structures. The e.p. is short but energetic with groove, moshing parts flying by and joining fast hardcore which dominates this release with fast drumming, some background guitar solos behind the verses reminding me of early Suicidal Tendencies. My personal favorites are ‘Back in the Bits’, ‘Times Like These’ and ‘Streets of Fire’ Good UK hardcore band and their e.p. Check this one out.
