good dudes is the worst compliment for a band ever. there so many good dude bands that actually blow cocks that it could be a misleading
comment....that being said...this band kicks unprecedented ass.
good dudes 9 out of 10 times = bad core.
yes, I'm a cranky old fucker.
first time I've actually been excited for a HC CD since Everyday Dollars.

Toured with these guys twice. Band is one of the best newer bands. Everyone in the band is a true to life ripper on their respective instruments.
The new album "Forever Wounded" is excellent.

I have seen them live a few times and their sound never grabbed me. I can tell they put their work in when it comes to practicing and crafting music
but not my cup of tea.

lol...how would the vocals kill it...sounds like a mix of blood for blood, sheer terror, 100 demons, against the grain and brotherhood...that's like
bucket of fucking win right there.

nah, i agree.
i don't care for the vocals either.
vocal sound makes or breaks a band for me.
that said, i feel like i heard earlier stuff from these guys that i really liked.
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

Sounds like the typical meathead chugga chugga metallic stuff with a little youth crew influence thrown in. Well, the one song I couldn't make it all
the way through did, anyway. I was hoping that it wouldn't be anything like that when I saw the thing on the page about them touring with Death Before
Dishonor, but nope, the music kicked in and it was the same old, same old. I guess I just was born too early to get into any of that shit.

One time I made a pie with all of my favorite ingredients- pumpkin, apple, banana, chocolate, pecan, and sweet potato...it should have been a bucket
of win but it tasted like shit.

There I edited the title too to not lure any more unwilling listeners in with promises of the next Social D.

Sometimes it feels that way. I'm totally disconnected from this subgenre of Hard Core and just
don't get it at all. All these bands sound like they took the most boring and overdone versions of the same style and added more metallic drum beats
to me. I was surprised to hear a bit of the youth crew influence in there, but aside from that, there's nothing I can hear that shows any trace of the
Hard Core stuff I've ever been into. I read your comparison to bands like Blood For Blood and Sheer Terror and thought maybe I'd dig it, but I just
don't get it. Seems like maybe you're taking it a bit personal that a couple folks aren't into it and I dunno why, but that's my take on it. I don't
get the Social D slam you threw out there either, I don't think anybody was looking for that, but whatever.

I'm not slamming anything...it's clear that a lot of people don't like this type of thing to begin with...which is easily seen just from the posts MM
makes alone where he gets a ton of the "generic chugga chugga" comments. There's obviously a section of this board that doesn't like that type of
stuff...more power to em...hence the thread title change.
I'm not taking anything personally...I just don't see why the same generic comment needs to be made towards a genre of music...if you don't like the"
tuff guy" style stuff, great but why waste the time to interject that? This isn't aimed at you personally but it comes up a LOT on this board.
I personally agree with you about most newer HC, I'm 35 and have seen a lot of crap bands moreso in the past 10 years than ever before. It's not
because I can't relate it's because bands don't write good music...this is the first thing I could actually get behind since the Everyday Dollars
CD...and that's maybe 2 years ago?
I saw a new band that carried a LOT of influences (not a hodge podge chaotic pie of them all at once) of other bands that get heralded on here
constantly and figured I'd pass it along...I've wasted too much damn time on this already lol....you'd thing I'm these guys PR agent.

A lot of old hardcore, that you geriatrics consider to be the real deal, sounds just as generic and bland as hatebreed albeit in a different manner.
Granted there was a ton of originality, and many amazing bands that came out of that period, but there was equal amounts of absolute dog shit music.
Nostalgia can always make something seem better then it actually was.
