Tyburn - Demo (EP)

Tyburn are a new band, made up of older guys. Members of xCanaanx (straight-edge mosh warriors) and HHH (Canterbury hardcore) have teamed up to form Tyburn. They play absolutely crushing ’90s inspired metalcore.

Taken from their own description on Facebook:

“Tyburn channel the righteous disgust and visceral spirit of bands like Left For Dead, Earthmover and Haymaker. This is seething metallic hardcore like your cooler, older brother was in to. If you can remember when bands had more songs than merch designs, and shirts ONLY came in XL…this is for you.”

Apart from Abolition (London straight-edge band), I can’t think of another band, from England, who’s gripping so tightly to perfecting the sound of music from when I was about ten years old. (edit: Natural Order… from Wales and In Tongues… from Scotland are doing a pretty decent job of it).

Still with a venom and fire in their lungs, these guys don’t limit their DIY attitude to solely music, the vocalist, John, also co-runs Iron Column Skateboards, a “company” who produces good quality skate stuff, from decks to t-shirts, to crewnecks and beanie hats… and sells them for as cheap as they possibly can, without losing money, as they notice it’s not about profit but about the love for skateboarding.

Good guys, playing better music. Seriously, I’ll state for a second time - they have this style of hardcore down to a tee!

You can hear the new songs (such as "ashes") via the Facebook page and buy a t-shirt, if you wish:

They also have a split 7” with Moat, coming out on Hemlock 13 Records, which you can check out here. I’m not sure when this split will be coming out but it’s adamantly anticipated:

That label is releasing a lot of dark, dark, gloomy stuff… including the Anguish (including members of The Flex… see the first post on this blog) 7”.
