Album: Abuse

Pre-listening Notes: This new band has members of The Hope Conspiracy, Living Eyes, and more. It is tagged on bandcamp as hardcore, punk, dbeat, and USA. So, that's what I know and now you know. You know.
Initial Reaction: Lifeless is a very common song/album name for hardcore bands. It's fast, it's crusty, and there is feedback everywhere. Nice punk breakdown about 50 seconds in after opening brutal.
Random Thoughts: This opening for song two is pretty chaotic. Another fast song, I am sensing that this will be a theme, since all four songs fall within one and two minutes long. Cool solo. Another ripper, with a solo about halfway through.
Final Reaction: The songs flew by a little too fast for me to really dig into comments. Overall, the music was fast and brutal. I could have stood for a few more songs, since the total length on this was probably less than 6 minutes. The vocals are either weak or just a little too low in the mix. Other than that, this was pretty decent.
Final Grade: 7.0/10
