Canadian hardcore legends Comeback Kid are back with their brand new album. I saw this band live only once at Punk Rock Holiday couple of years ago, and they delivered one fine mighty set there. Now, time for new record and this one contains 11 songs of relentless and merciless hardcore punk. What I always admire and love about this band is that they incorporate lots of melody in their songwriting besides sharp street smart hardcore guitar riffs. Andrew´s voice is screaming but fits perfectly to the songs, whether more melodic and anthemic parts of straightforward hardcore pummeling. Lyrically, Comeback Kid continue to deliver themes to which everyone of us can relate to. Songs like Face the Fire, Shadow of Doubt and Standstill are my personal favorites, you will just have to discover yours. Hardcore lives!
Canadian big time post hardcore punks Billy Talent are back with long awaited, several times delayed new album. Besides already known singles such as Forgiveness I+II there are all together ten songs on this one. Billy Talent got some really great innovations in their songwriting like saxophone solo, some keyboards, but it is still that nice melodic punk rock/post hardcore we all grown to love as the years went by. Songs like Reckless Paradise, Judged which are more straightforward punk song or I Beg To Differ are my personal favorites, but ballad The Wolf made my skin crawl with goosebumps, such fantastic melodies and backing vocal harmonies on that one. ForYou is another great example how superb this band is in their songwriting. Musicianship, songwriting, vocals, melodies, everything is just done really really on higher level concerning this record. Awesome new album!
