GONE ASTRAY
I can see the summer heat radiating off of the street
Feel the hot concrete under the soles of my feet
Stolen beer, no fear, nothing better to do
Close my eyes into yesterday and it’s all through
Suburban menace, hopping fences, and we’re running wild
With an old soul but the heart of a child
I don’t yearn for those days or try to resist the change
Not trying to stay the same, only just maintain
Stolen beer, no fear, nothing better to do
Close my eyes into yesterday and it’s all through
No need to reminisce, it’s not the past I miss
Only those who live for yesterday
The ones that have gone astray
We have to learn a lesson from our indiscretions
Find out who we should be while we’re still naive
Before we’re set in our ways, before we’re unwilling to change
We have to learn to never, ever act our age
Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album. Odiumediae
UK82-inspired hardcore punk from Christchurch, New Zealand, gruff and fast and economical and, of course, righteously pissed. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 16, 2020
This Spanish punk outfit carries forward an assortment of '80s hardcore influences, leaning heavy on riffs and speed. Pure pogo. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 6, 2017
