Synopsis:

Im gonna assume that many people may pass this up, especially those outside of the NYC HVNY scene, but be forewarned if you do you are missing out.  For those who need a break from the standard chug chug metalcore, or the stereo typical post hardcore nonsense, check this out.  Very groovy catchy as hell actual hardcore for fans of Burn, Absolution, Orange 9mm, Die 116, etc.  These guys have so many grooves, hooks, and riffs than need be.  Lyrics that actually say something not the standard.  Get yer dancing shoes on, these guys demand it.

Having been friends with Chris (Vocalist) for many years, ill never admit to his face how much I love his music, how much I envy his vinyl collection, or how much I respect the time, energy, and love he has put into his label, distro, and the scene.  He does everything right within his means.  He releases what he wants to, walks away from those he doesn't believe in.  Ethics people, Ethics.  The release is very DIY esque right down to the hand stamping, black n while cover art and inserts.  This is the type of record you may overlook, but for your sake if you see this in a bin, buy it.

Track Listing:

After Autumn

Destined to Burn

Synopsis: This 7″ takes me back to a much simpler time.  I time where I grew up with the guys from All Out War, a time where I was able to see them once a week play one or two songs before the set and the show got closed down due to fights.  A time where the Victory Records polish was not yet discovered and instead we go gritty, harsh, brutal crossover metal from Newburghs finest.  These are the recordings that put everything in motion and now thanks to Chris from Trip Machine Labs, they are once again available.  After Autumn for a period was a setlist main stay however Destined to Burn was/is their anthem going back to inception.  Incredible metallic riffs posed to an cross audience of HC and Metal kids which often led to unfortunate circumstances however we all had one common attribute, our love for this band and all that came with them.  Find out what set the foundation!  

The vinyl presentation is simplistic but screams All Out War in the same.  Gothic fonts, apocalyptic artwork.  Black and white (missing the red) scheme with the duality of a hardcore live shot on the back to offset the metal cover.
