Hardcore Humpday 2 : City Delivered, Fall City Fall, and Vices, Live in 3D + Bonus Amazingness

     Another wednesday, another half a day or so figuring out what to post. Or so I thought. Last night upon asking for suggestions a long time friend of mine suggested we take Hardcore Humpdays to a whole other level. Thus today we kick it up a notch, moving from pop-punk to a heavier sounding hardcore. So hope you don't have sensitive ears, cause we're going to take them on the ride of their lives.

     Our first band is a five piece hardcore band from San Diego, California, City Delivered. As most people are, I was slightly shocked when I discovered that their youngest member is fifteen, I guess that California breeds them heavy these days. My usual sources for background information has turned up nothing other than that this band is actually a hip hop group ranked among the top 100 of all times by Rolling Stone... which doesn't seem right to me, hopefully upon hearing them you will understand. Their sound is nothing even close to hip hop, growling closer to metal with riffs that may or may not break your neck assault your senses, and heavy blast beats cut the sound waves. Hit the preview below or download their new EP A Star is Born.

     Our second group today is a six piece from Calgary Alberta, Fall City Fall. As always we love nothing more than to showcase Canadian talent. You need trained ears to pick apart the differences between metal bands these days. To the journeymen of rock, metal is all the same, but give it a second, play tracks back to back. You'll notice that Fall City Fall, gets more of its roots from punk that City Delivered. The vocals are higher and faster, the guitars and drums are more for accenting the overall sound, relying on the vocals to drive the song forward to a place where every sound collides into one complete package of doom. Give it a listen and if metal isn't your thing then check the bottom of the post or head on back tomorrow.

     Yet again we have another slight variant of the normal metal sound, from Toronto, Ontario, Vices, Live in 3D. This time they even go so far as to classify themselves as hardcore/punk, and hardcore doesn't even start to cut it. Toronto seems to be the focal point for alot of Ontario talent, and thats fine with me, being about an hour away. Now I just need to get that truck I've been saving for and start hitting some of these intense shows I've been hearing so much about. They have six tracks up on mediafire for download, all of them worthy of showing here, so...

Vices, Live in 3D 

... head on over for six tracks of musical adrenaline, head out and rage the day away.

     *Three days to one month and still counting. My goal is to have 1000 views in a month, and I think thats very achievable seeing as how we already have almost 950. No apologies if metal isn't quite your thing, as we cater to all musical tastes, but if you really need something new then if you remember back to the first Suggestion Saturday, we featured a DJ by the name of Drivepilot, he recently dropped a brand new track and its been floating around. So drop on down for the download and thanks again for all the support.
