NEWS: Combust escape from the “Belly Of The Beast”!
At the tail end of 2023 New York Hardcore crew Combust announced their signing with Triple B Records with a two song promo that left us thinking a new album was imminent. Recorded with Zach Miller at Landmine Studios, “Belly Of The Beast” is finally making its appearance on 7th March with “Our Own Breed” now streaming. A guest heavy record, it showcases community within the hardcore scene and beyond with features from members of Terror, Mindforce, Crown Of Thornz, Dmize, Imposter and rapper Rome Streetz across twelve tracks of furious intent.
The song addresses the recent surge of opportunists entering the hardcore scene, as vocalist Andrew Vacante expands: “Older people who were never a part of this culture or scene try to come in and complain or use it to their benefit just for profit or a resurgence in their washed up pathetic past. Weird social media figures try to backpack off our shit just so they can boost their views and they hop in and hop out and use bands for numbers and clicks. This song is for the ones who reject them.”
