Whoa! It's like I hit a time warp and traveled back to the early years of the NYHC scene. But I didn't. Off Balance hail from Indianapolis and they're out and about playing gigs right now. This demo is seven tracks of throwback hardcore that draws heavily from bands like Sheer Terror and Killing Time. I found it interesting that the vocalist, who goes by the name Justin the Cook (his nickname is even very 90's) claims a significant lyrical influence from traditional country music - the lyrics are rather poignant and desperate. Bottom-line, this is a demo and it's okay. The band definitely has some growing to do, but they show promise.
