LDN New Blood.


If you ask anyone that lives outside of London to define London hardcore, the answer would generally be "tough with breakdowns". This definition is blown out of the water by "Honour Among Thieves". With a more melodic sound than your average london band, Honour Among Thieves mix bane style vocals with tougher screams, and guitars that would feel quite at home in Comeback Kids debut record. The band already have a handful of shows, including support slots for Sick Of It All and Madball.

Next up is Jailbait. The band haven't even recorded a demo yet and have been hailed as one of the most promising bands to come out of London. The band earned this tag after their spectacular performance at Facedown Festival at the dome last month. While the band are not bringing anything relatively new to the table musically(but lets face it, how many bands do these days), they are, by far, the funnest hardcore band I have seen in a long time.

Please give both bands your time.
