Guilt Trip – River Of Lies
Releasedate . August 30. via BDHW Rec.

River of Lies has been in production for the past couple of years. With many set backs along the way including a full album re-write and member changes. River of Lies is Guilt Trip’s most down to earth release to date, touching on subjects such as mental health and betrayal it takes a deeper look into things that effect day to day life. Musically it is far more aggressive than anything they have done before, heavier breakdowns, more riffs and raw vocals throughout.

(record review) LOST IN LIFE-B.T.C.O.H.U. (Dead Serious Recordings)

Leave a comment

Wow! That is all I can say after listening to the new record by Lost In Life out with Dead Serious Recordings. Read the review and find out more why I love this one so much!

artwort

This band comes from Frankfurt area, Germany, and this new record contains 9 songs. The full title of the record is Beyond The Compass Of Human Understanding. In the days when meaningless metalcore bands rule the land, this one plays hardcore like it was meant to be, with a touch of metal, but staying true to the street punkrock roots. The lyrics are also very good, meaning strong political antifa stance and these songs have head and tails and hardcore kids can relate to that and this band has really something to say. Musically,  there are some NYHC influences, similar to Madball or Agnostic Front, but also there are a lot of Euro hardcore old school influences in the songs with all the energy and deliverance only true hardcore band can provide. The songs are fast forward, with screaming vocals, great choruses, but also there are a lot of moshing parts and catchy metalic guitar melody here and there. I love the joke with the intro song called AnyGivenShitIsOk, but my personal favorite songs on this record are Homesick, Nothing To Me and Days Of Old. Awesome record!

9/10

(record review) IN OTHER CLIMES-Ruthless(Dead Serious Recordings)

Leave a comment

In Other Climes are back with a new album due out with Dead Serious Recordings and I listened and reviewed it for our zine.

Artwork

These French hardcore heavyweights have been around in the scene for 15 years now, coming from the town of Nice. The band has seen plenty of action during the years traveling all around the globe and delivering their music and thus gaining the whole legions of new fans around the continents.

The new record contains 13 songs. For those who don´t know, In Other Climes play their vision of metal influenced hardcore with a lot of breaks, mosh parts, but also straightforward hardcore fast parts. If I must compare it to some bands it would be maybe Merauder, Madball with a bit more metalic touch in the song structures. If you are a fan of harder side of hardcore, this is the right album for you, with screaming guitars, thrash metal solos thrown in a song or two for good measure, sing along choruses and great music, that is what only matters. Bands like this one are not my everyday cup of tea, but this is quality record and go get it. My favorite songs:Wolfpack, Bark, Drakkar.
