The Love Me Nots – Detroit
I missed out on The Love Me Nots’s debut “In Black & White” which hit the streets in 2007 but if “Detroit” is anything to go by, I’m gonna have to get my hands on that one as well.
We Were Promised Jetpacks – These Four Walls
I love Scottish accents… really. They never fail to put a smile on my face!
After The Fall – Fort Orange
Here’s an Albany, NY trio that is trying to blow new life into 90s melodicore and is doing a pretty damn good job of it on “Fort Orange”.
Title Fight – The Last Thing You Forget
“The Last Thing You Forget” is available as a 3-song 7” or as a 12-song CD with the additional songs being everything the band has recorded up ‘til this point.
Sleeping Giant – Sons Of Thunder
Sleeping Giant is back with the follow-up to “Dread Champions Of The Last Days” and in case you didn’t know they are a christian band, they start off the title track with a verse from the gospel of
Higher Giant – The First Five 7”
Member of this outfit have previously played in… get ready for this… Token Entry, Kid Dynamite, Grey Area, Lifetime, Black Train Jack, Paint It Black, None More Black, Good Riddance, Warzone and so
Killswitch Engage – S/T
Just like their 2000 debut, the new Killswitch Engage album is a self-titled one.
This Is Hell
This Is Hell is a kickass hardcore band who already have two very solid full-lengths out. They always seemed to feel at home over at Trustkill but now there’s the “Warbirds” 7” which will be released on August 18th on Think Fast! Records.
Dredg
Dredg released one of my favourite albums so far this year with "The Pariah, The Parrot, The Delusion". It's an amazing album that constantly crosses over into different genres but always sounds like a Dredg album.
Mariachi El Bronx
Oh shit, they did it again! In November last year The Bronx released their excellent third album where they exorcised some more demons in that typical hardcore punk fashion of theirs, now they’re back already but with a twist.
