The Fomites are from Canada and this is their new album containing twelve songs. What I love about this record is, that it is pretty raw hardcore punk, fast and strong, but also with melody and some epic guitar riffs thrown in the songs for good measure. Vocals remind me a lot of Anti Heros and similar bands, being rough yet can sing at the same time where needed and with raw music, also fit rawer vocals. Lyrics deal with more fun side of things with songs like ‘Pizza Problems’, or ‘Help Me Toaster Oven Pizza, You’re My Only Hope’ you just can’t go wrong. Musicianship is really tight and delivers punch after punch with songs like ‘Strange Things Afoot At The Circle K’ and ‘We Got The Tools, We Got The Talent’ which are my personal favorites among many others on this record. I love the bass lines on ‘5X5’ and this song shows the musical skills of this fine band. Some songs have almost anthemic riffs like ‘Mutants’ which is fantastic. This is a really great band and great album, so go take a listen!
