Your Fall – Your Fall — Hurry Up!, 2008

I know nothing of the Brazilian hardcore world, nor will I pretend to know anything. In fact, the only things I know about Brazil are they love football (Americans should read that as soccer) and they gave us thrashers Sepultura. Outside of that, I'm just a naïve no-nothing.

Your Fall is from Curitiba, which, from what I can gather, is the New York City of Brazil

I think. It's a hardcore breeding ground; that's all you need to know.

This is the band's first proper release following a demo. You get ten tracks of New York-influenced hardcore: thick and groove-heavy hardcore that is comparable to titans like Madball, Leeway, and Cro-Mags. Your Fall deliver hardcore you can bang your head to, dance to, or just sing-along with. And guess what? The words are in English, so you don't need to translate it - always a plus from foreign acts.

If Your Fall were from the U.S. you'd probably be hearing about them as much as you do Bitter End and Alpha & Omega. If you dig it, grab this from Bridge Nine, as they're carrying it here.

Also writing reviews for bands that aren’t friends of mine is pretty cool but when I hear a band I really like, like Sex Faces, it makes me want to be friends with them, I can't help it! I’m not even halfway … Read more

I Have A Screw Loose, Somewhere
Sell The Heart Records (2025)

What does Unseemlier sound like? I've been mulling that question as I listen to I Have A Screw Loose, Somewhere for a while now. As I listen to more and more Sell The Heart releases, The band is from Boston, but seemingly influenced by late '80s DC. It's heavy, but more with hardcore-like vocals shouted over moving, building guitars and … Read more

Personality Cult

Dilated
Dirtnap (2025)

I had a hard time starting this review. I can’t help coming back to the fact that it sounds like Marked Men. It does, maybe intentionally so, as Dilated is the second of Personality Cult’s albums that is produced by Jeff Burke of Marked Men and Radioactivity. But I don’t necessarily like to say a band sounds like another band … Read more
