WEDNESDAY NIGHT HEROES "Wednesday Night Heroes/ For The Worse Split EP" Review



Wednesday Nights Heroes’ contribution to this split EP comprises two tracks, the first of which, “No Control” is a fantastically frenzied convulsion of Hardcore that stands apart in today’s scene. A far cry from Boston contemporaries like Blood For Blood, Wednesday Night Heroes have a more minimal and raw sound and it’s refreshing to hear an old school sound making itself heard as opposed to the more modern metal influenced Hardcore we  often hear. Their cover of Zero Boys’ “Civilization’s Dying” is less riveting but just as well executed. I would have preferred to hear another original track on the album as this group have an undeniable talent for song writing, but it’s nice to hear them pay homage to a more established band, and the cover is characterised by a simple and seasoned professionalism.
 This band clearly know what they’re doing, and they’re on to a good thing. I’d highly recommend this for any fans of Hardcore groups from Negative Approach to Bad Religion. They’ll please pretty much anyone with sense.
