New Music Recommendations

Massachusetts based melodic hardcore punk crew, A Wilhelm Scream, just dropped their brand new record Cheap Heat! I’ve always considered this band the “punk band for metalheads” or the “metal band for punk kids” and this album proves my point. This release features the shredding talent of the homie Ben Murray(Light This City, Heartsounds, Darkness Everywhere) who is the band’s newest member. This is also the second record the band has released via Ben’s label Creator-Destructor Records. Listen to it NOW…like RIGHT NOW. FFO: Strung Out, At The Gates, Have Heart, Good Riddance, Strike Anywhere.
