My Own Co-Pilot is a band started in 2017.by Michal Kosinski from Gothenburg, Sweden, with an idea to bring back the spirit of emotions filled hardcore back to the newer generations. I listened and reviewed the record for our zine.
This record contains 4 songs. The music was recorded in Sweden and the vocals were done in USA, so you can say this is a Trans-Atlantic project. The music is hardcore, maybe the way it was done in late 90-ies or early 2000´s meaning rolling riffs, melodic and memorable guitar hooks and awesome screamed vocals. That makes an interesting whole with historical, but also modern value to the generations of newer kids who might never heard this side of hardcore. The lyrics are personal and for me somehow the song which touched me the most is This Crying, but the whole e.p. is one intense and memorable experience for the listener. This is a very strong record and I will remember it in the months to come while I wait eagerly for the full length-
