Vulgar
Display- Under Darkness and Prayer EP review
This is bona-fide metalcore: Metallic hardcore, the kind of sound created
by the likes of Integrity, Earth Crisis, and Ringworm. Usually mid-tempo and sometimes slow in the
most wretched of ways, this sound is heavy as fuck, the chords reverberating
for seconds after they ring out. The
vocals are not guttural as is usual for the dirtier side of metalcore; it’s
much easier to discern the words the vocalist is singing, and he still has a
righteous anger in his voice. The lyrics
are pessimistic as ever, lone wolf of justice style- The Punisher would
probably approve. The ninja moshers will
love the hell out of this, and so will the proponents of late 80s-early 90s
hardcore, for it has a few breakdowns and a lot of old-school vibes, even
though it’s a modern creation. For any
and all who raise the banner of “hardcore”.
