The dystopian themed OF MAN AND MACHINE is served on a thick bed of guitars, knee breaking bass and bone crushing vocals, all built upon a rhythm foundation that takes absolutely no prisoners!

Higher Power from Leeds, UK are starting to be more and more important wheel in the machine of rising UK hardcore scene, with their new album being out with Roadrunner. The album offers eleven songs. The music of Higher Power can be categorized as modern hardcore with lots of groove and metalic moshing parts, but from all that brutality the music quickly transforms into gentle and melodic clean sung chorus, with charismatic vocalist J Town having such perfect beautiful voice. I don˙t know, sometimes the music of Higher Power reminds me of more melodic version of Snapcase, band that I listened to a lot when I was a kid, and still listen to. Sometimes they dare to tap into almost indie and post hardcore influences in parts of the songs, making them more interesting listening for me. This is great modern hardcore. Personal favorites: Seamless, Low Season, Staring At The Sun.

8,5/10

(review) Grind-Songs of Blood and Liberation(Dedication Records)

Album - Songs of Blood and Liberation

Grind from Germany are releasing their brand new album with Dedication Records. The album contains 10 songs and it is a lesson in brutality. The music of Grind can be described as a mixture of fast and energetic hardcore punk and noise/grindcore with some melodic hook and post hardcore bit thrown in for good measure. The album is brutal, yet somehow very nice for listening especially Empthy Things, one of my highlights from the album. Vocals are superb, growled, screamed and shouted, depending on the song and fit perfectly to the picture. I would love to hear and see these guys destroy live on stage, I am sure this band kicks ass live. With songs like Liberate, Even Death May Die(another favorite of mine) or Necklaces of Death you just can`t go wrong. Members of Grind have more than twenty years experience in the extreme music scene based in Flensburg, northern Germany, so this album is definitely a proof and making them a band to watch out for and I am so lucky being able to listen to it now as it is fresh. Great album.
