Sometimes even exhausted subgenres like hardcore get the occasional jolt of freshness. Courtesy of Finland, HERO DISHONEST take it up a notch. Though they are about as subtle as an axe blow to the noggin, they take a more musical approach that’s missing in most latter day hardcore acts. They kind of remind of THE UPRIGHT CITZENS from back in the day. They also could be hardcore punks answer to NAPALM DEATH. Klem Benton’s vocals and Sir Sweat-A-Lot’ “blastbeat metabolism” are a keepsake to that vibe. There is some especially searing technical guitar work can be found on “180”, “Crawl Song”, “Death Wish”, “If I Can’t Drop Out It’s Not My Revolution”, “Monkey Song”, and “Arm The Squirrel”. The blistering “fat bottom g-stings” that Dorgastmatron brings forth are attestation that this gentleman is no mere bar chord Billy. He and his boys put out. Say it. Spray it. Get the job done. Do it well and be quick about it. HD do it with 21 songs in 25 minutes. Check out the MP3 below and tell me it doesn't take your head off.
