Band Spotlight
All Hope Remains are apparently based in Australia, but I'm finding that hard to believe. Everything from the Euro-English stylings of their name, to the slightly metallic, melancholy-tinged sound screams 'Alienated European punks who grew up listening to Epi/Fat' to me. This isn't the type of Aussie punk that conjures images of board shorts, beers and 'barbies, it's something deeper and more brooding than that.
Their latest single 'Hit Rewind' is sure to tickle the fancy of skate punks across the world; the opening snare roll and subsequent harmonic-laden guitar riff rolling back the years to when Ten Foot Pole and Pennywise were hotter than an ill-prepared British tourist walking in the Australian sun.
What sets these guys apart is their knack for melody and the clarity of the vocals. Plenty of bands are tight and technical, but few also have hooks that stand out over the flurry of riffs and drums fills that skate punk is heaving with.
Check them out here.
coem non now. You must know what the title of the second song is? It's from the classic Punk documentary "Another State of Mind". The canadian punk rock kid who had gotten hit by a car and was all messed up. he said he wanted to die because "life is not amusement for me"
some real fucking geniuses on the board today I see. Keyboard warriors.
did you guys watch the video? The first guy talks shit and Rat talks shit back, but the 2nd guy who gets punched threw a glass at him. He deserved whatever the fuck he got. If you throw shit at a band you deserve a fucking arse kicking and that's exactly what he got.
interesting, as the exploited formed in 1978. So you must have been in the bromley contingent along with Sioux and Billy Idol if you hold the opinion that punk died before 1978. I'm guessing that was before you were born.
if you don't like street punk why the fuck would you be reading an article about the exploited?
