OVERPOWER - Overpower 2022

Location: UK

Release: Self-released, 2022

OVERPOWER from South West UK presented last year their 5-song debut EP and it's the bomb! I remember hearing their promo 3 years back and held high expectations for them. It was an easy pick for the All Things Old School 2022's best of selection, another true hidden gem for all crossover maniacs out there.

Many new groups claim their sound is Thrash hardcore nowadays but in reality they're delivering beatdown-ish metallic dull hardcore. Don't be fooled, accept no substitutes, here you really get what's advertised, only the real deal, OVERPOWA!

Ladies and gents, hailing from the land of capybaras enters INFORTUNO, right on time for carnaval, the feast of the flesh festivities official soundtrack is here!

Comprised by 2/4 of CLOBBERIN' TIME, these dudes released just recently Decadent Vindication, a short but sweet debut 5-song EP. Different from what was expected from that crew INFORTUNO delivers death/doom-inspired hardcore that surprises not only for the heaviness but also for the recording quality given the DIY/basement circumstances it was recorded.

Fans of Xibalba, Fuming Mouth and Immolation should find this a delight. Fav tracks: Martelo da Retribuição e Ghost Of What I Could Be, such beautiful song names.
