Transitions – Positive Hardcore — Independent, 2008

This CD is a three song demo of 90's hardcore on the posi tip (obviously). It sounds like a cross between Mouthpiece and Undertow. So you probably already tell I like this. It's a complete throwback to when I got into hardcore and not breaking any new ground but for three tracks you really can't complain. It's heavy with simple riffs that sometimes pick up the pace. Every song has a part where everyone else stops playing besides the bass player. That's the part when you stage dive. If you like 90's hardcore like me, I'd urge to get this. Contact this band on their Myspace and I'm sure you can still snag one of these if you want.
