CASTING CURSES - 2 SONGS FROM THEIR HEARTIFICIAL EP (NY, USA)


CASTING CURSES - 2 SONGS FROM THEIR HEARTIFICIAL EP (NY, USA)

Heartificial is a two-song EP from Upstate New York's Casting Curses. This five-piece hardcore outfit delivers an impact statement in just two songs, something that is rather impressive. “Hey Disbeliever” leads it off and brings to mind modern hardcore bands such as Have Heart. They mix the aggression of hardcore with a bit of melody, resulting in an enjoyable experience. The vocals remind me a bit of Zach de la Rocha's days in Inside Out at points too, which is cool. “Change the Lights” is the second track and it is ten times better than the preceding number. The opening riff kills; it's got a definite Verse vibe going on; and the sing-along at the end of the song is spot on. This two-song EP is way too short and has me itching for more. Casting Curses is a band for anyone that has a collection with records from Rivalry, Bridge Nine, and New Age.
