Firewalker - Firewalker - CD Japan.

Firewalker - Firewalker - CD Japan.
PRE-ORDER - - release about 30th November - available here https://blitzrecords.bigcartel.com/
Firewalker from Boston, whose lineup is all-women and who puts forward feminist issues. The band really stands out with its’ vocals: many hardcore frontwomen use more high-pitched voices, but Firewalker’s singer has a truly aggressive and deep singing style. A badass and high-energy CD.
When Justice Tripp (TRAPPED UNDER ICE, ANGEL DU$T) and Brendan Yates (TURNSTILE) signed FIREWALKER on their Pop Wig Records label a couple of years ago, it was obvious they are a band to watch. Sophie Hendry’s blackened vocals blended with some raw 80s hardcore harshness made it really unique and the band’s previous recordings have already achieved a balance between seething chaos and hidden vulnerability.. Firewalker have sure made a hell of a lot of noise off of a demo and a promo tape. The Boston hardcore band (think Ball of Destruction-era brutality) has a lot in common with Sheer Terror, Outburst and much of the infamous New Breed comp artists; but they're a whole different animal, employing the almost death metal-esque shredded throat of Sophie Hendry with a finished product that's as if Paul Bearer fronted early Agnostic Front or early Breakdown. It's wild, muscular and brutal stuff.
