AFTERBURN - Open Eyes Long Blinded

Location: Edinburgh, UK
Release: DIY, 2019

This page represent what I feel is real, therefore bands like AFTERBURN will always have a guaranteed spot here, a new group but with familiar faces on it, filling a hole that WAR CHARGE left in the Scottish old school scene.

For those who remember War Charge know what they were up to when it came to hardcore, in Afterburn they just adjusted their pool of influences to the early 00's (Bridge9, Indecision Records) and dropped any metal vestige left, the music got faster, some of the songs inherited that sxe melodic hardcore riffage not unlike Count Me Out and others are a full speed assault like in the track Trapped, very Carry On-ish.

It will be interesting to see where they will head next with their sound, possibilities and hopes are high for Afterburn.
