Enabler is a sick Wisconsin-based outfit that means business on “Year One”. Having previously served time in outfits such as Trap Them, Todays Is The Day and Dead To Fall, they already learned the ropes and waste no time getting down to the nitty gritty.

“Year One” is pretty much the band’s discography up until now on one shiny disc, including the “Eden Sank To Grief” and “War Begins With You” releases. With a friggin’ relentless mix of punk, hardcore and grindcore, Enabler will pummel your ass into oblivion as they dish out menacing riff after menacing riff alongside blastbeats, chugga chugga shredding and badass vocals. Think of Nasum, Napalm Death and Cursed rolled into one and you’ll get the gist of it. Not exactly the kind of songs you’d play to get a party started.

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.
