| Victory:
In Stores Today |
Day in Rock reports: Victory records has a
few standout heavy releases hitting stores today. Hobo singled out one
of them last week as an exceptional release. That being Ringworm and if
you missed his review, click the full story link. Here is the 411 on all
3 releases.
With Honor: Over the past three years,
With Honor has been helping to carve out a niche in the subgenre of positive
hardcore. Playing powerful, unique, spirited ‘core with melody puts them
up at the ranks of likeminded post hardcore/punk revivalists Rise Against,
Comeback Kid and Strike Anywhere. With their fiery youth crew spirit and
uncompromised loyalty, With Honor has returned with their second full length
release, This Is Our Revenge.
Scars of Tomorrow: Emerging from the depths
of Southern California’s now notorious metalcore scene like a bat out of
hell, Scars Of Tomorrow are back with their follow up to 2004’s Rope Tied
To The Trigger. Their latest effort to take over all things heavy, titled
The Horror Of Realization, deals with many an issue, ranging anywhere from
haunting self-discovery to quasi-political matters to various personal
apprehensions. “The horror of realization is basically realizing what surrounds
you. A lot of times people don‘t want to believe what‘s there and want
to forget about it, but the reality of the world can‘t be avoided”, said
vocalist Mike Milford.
Ringworm: The world’s most legendary, vile
and destructive hardcore metal band, Ringworm, are back with their latest
attempt to wreak havoc on the world. Ringworm, originally from the metal
scene of Cleveland, Ohio, have spent the past decade unleashing destruction
across the globe. After spending the past four years touring with bands
such as Hatebreed, Blood For Blood and Terror, Ringworm have finally brought
forth the wrathful masterpiece of Justice Replaced By Revenge. Ringworm’s
brooding guitar lines and pummeling riffs on Justice Replaced By Revenge
reach into the depths of the psyche and bring forth the evil that lives
inside. - Click
