Deal With It – World Coming Down — Dead & Gone, 2007

Deal With It is the latest hardcore export from the U.K. This five-piece group of fellas churn out five brand new songs on World Coming Down. And with the CD version you are gifted with the band's demo recording from last year.

World Coming Down is a high-octane blast of meaty hardcore that draws influence from the classic New York sound, but also has the swagger of modern hardcore. If you took the best of Leeway and Cro-Mags and mixed it with No Warning and Terror you'd have Deal With It. Lyrically, these dudes are pissed off about a lot of things, and with the current state of the world, who can blame them?

These songs are pretty ace, though I think that they are the type of band that really excels in the live environment. So hopefully they get to touring a bit more so that those of us in the U.S. can bear witness.
