All Out War
Saw them last night with Death Threat! Just as I remembered them, brutal show! I haven't been this sore in a long time. Brought me back 15 years,
remember seeing both bands all the time in the late 90's early 2000's. Nearly blew my load when Death Threat opened with Dead at Birth. Last night
reaffirmed everything I like about hardcore,punk,and Oi!

I've never understood people calling All Out War a hardcore band. I've always thought they sound like a straight-up metal band. I like Death Threat,
but I've always found it funny that my favorite song of theirs was the track with Rob Lind and Buddha on it. Not a great selling point for a band, if
your best song required guys from a better band lending a hand. Of course, most people would disagree with my opinion of it being Death Threat's best
song.

They are definitly a metal band, but they always played with hardcore band. Every time I saw them it was at a hardcore show. Death Threat are great,
they have a lot of great songs in my opinion.

I consider All Out War a hardcore band playing metal, if that makes sense. I think the general attitude and spirit is purely hardcore, but the music
is without a doubt metal.

I guess that makes sense in some ways. I'd classify Earth Crisis the same way.

What ever way you classify them they are still a great band. And they always put on a good show.

I would love to hear some new material from AOW. This time of year is when I listen to them. Every time I hang up Christmas lights on the house, AOW
is blaring. No idea why, just happens to make sense.

Metalcore the way it should be, and still amazing after all these years.
A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s
a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal
favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.

I liked the band the other AOW guys did without the singer. I think it was called Nerve Gas Tragedy or something along those lines.
