(review) The Old Breed/Squared Off – Split

The Old Breed and Squared Off released split EP containing two songs from each band. Squared Off are from Chicago and their side of this little record is two songs of street punk with some faster hardcore oriented music like in ‘Screen’ and more UK OI influenced melodic street punk in ‘Lessons Never Learned reminding me in a way of Booze & Glory and similar bands. The Old Breed are from Toledo and are a bit harsher playing more hardcore punk street side of music and sounding a bit less melodic and more dirty. I like Squared Off side of this little record a bit more, being a more melodic sucker but both bands are worth listening to and checking out especially ‘Left Behind’ and ‘Call To War’. Four songs by two great bands!
