Featuring Tony Foresta (vocals) and Phil "LandPhil" Hall (guitar) of Municipal Waste and Paul Burnette (bass) and Ryan Parish of Supression (drums), both also formerly of Darkest Hour, the 80's hardcore influenced thrash act has drawn early comparisons to Leeway, The Cro-Mags, and Nuclear Assault.
Check out the track "Cycle of Violence" through Brooklyn Vegan right here. The band, which formed in late 2011, is planning for an upcoming U.S. tour early this Spring.
Says frontman Foresta on the band, "We formed last winter after talks about doing a band together for a really long time. All four guys had a bunch of down time, so we just wrote a shit load of songs. I enjoy writing with these guys because not only can we write song about some ridiculous topics, but there's also more room to write about more serious and personal opinions in there as well." He continues, "This record has a lot of heart. It's a great release for me mentally."
