Description

From Take it Back Records in cooperation with Green Menace and Street Survival Records comes this raging split 7″ between two Finnish bands: Foreseen and Upright. Foreseen kicks things off with two tracks that take their crunchy, energetic metallic hardcore and toss in even more badass solos and thrashy metal riffs. It sucks that a lot of bands from Europe still have a harder time getting the same amount of respect as comparable bands from the US, but Foreseen is stylistically right up there with bands like Bitter End, Take Offense, etc. and damn sure deserves just as much love. Upright then follows with four shorter songs comparable to the straightforward, no bullshit approach of classic bands like Madball or the like. Expect a traditional hardcore base with high-speed energy and just the right amount of chunky groove during the breaks. What more needs to be said here!? I’ve been an enormous fan of this aspect of the Finnish scene for a long time now, and it’s so great that there are still top-notch, 90’s styled metallic hardcore bands coming out of Finland that can easily keep me excited about this style. Awesome. On ltd. edition GREEN vinyl!
