Inert – Inert — Our Pride, 2008

Inert is an ex-members of band from Los Angeles. This 7" is the band's debut offering and boasts six tracks of metallic, groove-laden hardcore. Musically this reminds me of No Warning and Cold World

but not as good, and I don't even like either of those bands. If that's what you're into, then you'll probably enjoy what these guys have

had to offer... as apparently this band is on hiatus now. Bottom-line, Inert is nothing special, but it's not horrible.

Semi-feral punk outfit NightFreak are back with a self-titled LP filled with breakneck riffs and 70s metal bombast. The Chicago group haven’t slowed down since 2022’s Speed Trials but they have filled out. NightFreak the album is lousy with warm back beats and melodic guitars; although, hardcore vocals and tight drums still reign supreme. Album opener “Blackout” is dead serious … Read more
