Hardcore punk band The Banner bursts out of whatever dark lair they were holed up in with another scathing attack on your eardrums. This time it’s called “Frailty” and it literally explodes out of the speakers. This is about as nasty as it gets… think of a slightly more mellow (in the broadest context possible) version of The Acacia Strain, Converge without the chaos or the now defunct Cursed.
If they continue down this path, they might just come up with a sound all their own and will be a real treat for all the grimy hardcore lovers out there!

Lacking the talent to actually play in a band, Tom decided he would write about bands instead. Turns out his writing skills are mediocre at best as well.
