So, we sent in our little ol' EP to Slug Magazine to be reviewed and I hate to break it to you all, but... God is not cool anymore. . . . .Riots of Eighty
The Ivory Road
Independent
Street: 04.07
Riots of Eighty = Underoath + The Used + Blinded Black
Christian Hardcore is probably the
lamest genre of music that has ever been invented. I mean come on,
screaming about faith and god and being all angry about it? Seriously?
Well now we have a new sub genre of Christian hardcore: Mormon
hardcore. Riots of Eighty are the most hardcore Mormons of all time and
that is saying a lot. Now I will give Riots of Eighty some credit:
their chops are tight and their song structures are solid. But there is
absolutely not one original thing going on here. It’s the same sing
song, scream, double bass, heavy thrash, whiney formula that goes along
with the majority of all screamo / Christian hardcore bands. It’s too
bad these kids have serious skill but they’re sheep. – Jon Robertson
.......So now we will do nothing but scream about murdering babies and worshiping idols. Sound good to you????
