ACME

www.myspace.com/acmegermany
genre: Hardcore / Metalcore

Acme (from Bremen, Germany) were among the most influential Hardcore bands of the 1990’s. Edison released their album “to reduce the choir to one soloist” in 1996, but the recordings date back to 1993/1994, these nine tracks comprise the entirety of Acme’s recorded career (one 7”, three compilation tracks, one demo).Presumably the band take their musical cues from early 90’s Hardcore bands such as Born Against and ‘Protestant’-era Rorschach, but this is occluded so thoroughly by a dense (funeral) fog of extreme metal, sludge and grind that their original Hardcore influences are difficult to pinpoint. The result is one of Acme successfully straddling all of their influences without ripping them off, and unlike some of their imitators, they don’t resort to blast-beat extremity by excess.The influence and importance of these recordings has become impossible to ignore in the wake of the metallic hardcore and ‘screamo’ explosions that followed. Converge, Orchid, Morser, Caliban, Shikari, Breach…the list is expansive and far transcends the infamous ‘Bremen scene’. Do not let these names fool you though. The originators were the masters, and for people who like genuinely intense, dark, challenging, extreme music of any form - this record is impossible to fault.

Hope And Suicide

www.myspace.com/hopeandsuicide
from: Florida, U.S.
genre: Hardcore / Metal / Sludge

Despite having vocalist Scott Angelacos in their ranks (of the legendary Bloodlet) and slugging it out with tours and releases since the turn of this century, Hope and Suicide have unquestionably flown under the radar in the underground. However, with their self-titled release and first for Steve Austin's (Today is the Day) Supernova imprint (which has switched to digital-only for its releases), Hope and Suicide have released a behemoth of a record that can't be ignored. While the metallic onslaught Hope and Suicide delivered ..fforts seemed piecemeal at times — parts of a whole that sounded not fully integrated — Hope and Suicide here have not only smoothly incorporated all their influences (technical metal flourishes, post-hardcore distorted noise, catchy rock movements, Angelacos' condemned bellowing mixed with scratchy singing) but finally defined a sound that is unquestionably Hope and Suicide's. And it's a monster. Tracks such as "Living the Dream" and the Quicksand nodding "Whiskey Tango" demonstrate a catchier, more hook-filled H&S without sacrificing heaviness, and opener "Switzerland," complete with noodling tech jazz intro, sets a brutal pace from the onset. Does it outdo Angelacos' previous work in Bloodlet? Does it matter? Perhaps this self-titled record's greatest accomplishment is that it will have people stop referring to Bloodlet when talking about H&S and force them to acknowledge H&S as their own band building their own legacy.
