Counterblast - Karma Crusher Promo

Call me late to the party, but I just discovered this band a few weeks back and I am hooked. Imagine if you will, you took a time machine back to the mid/late 90's and Hardcore was a smorgashboard of diffrent ideas and sounds, that's where you could find Counterblast.

Hailing from the great state of Texas, Counterblast brings back that Krishna inspired Hardcore we all know and loved back in the day, but with an obvious new breathe in mordern day sound.

Not much needs to be said about Counterblast except that where some bands work towards an end goal and have a progress to become a better band, Counterblast already has it and will (at least I hope) continue to grace us with more music soon. I hope they are release new stuff and become more active in 2016!

108 - Threefold Misery

Bringing religion into Punk/Hardcore has always been looked at, weirdly. Both bad and good has come from bands who have put their personal faith into their music. At times, the idea of “Faith” being sang has come off as pushy and unwanted. But there are a few bands who can whole heartily put their love for Hardcore and their faith into songs, and make it a masterpiece. One, obviously is the all mighty “krishnacore” band 108.

Threefold Misery is an album that showcases how one band can mix religion and breakdowns in such a manner, that I get goosebumps for every songs. I always thought Threefold Misery was the big “BANG” before they disbanded. Almost like a, “Hey this is what you’re gonna be missing now we aren’t a band.” type of thing. Luckily, the band has got back together and plays here and there, which makes my dream of seeing them live more than possible. I’ll just leave their link here, so you can discover how amazing this album is.
