Now a lot of people today
listen to mainstream shit,
such as My Chemical Romance,
The Used, Metallica, etc...
but what people don’t listen
to is Indie. More people
need to give credit to the
smaller bands. They need
money more than mainstream
bands and people should
begin to listen to bands
like Throw The Fight.
The band
is an intricate combination
of punk, metal and even
classic rock, which sounds
odd, but in the end sounds
amazing. Hailing from
Minneapolis, the band
consists of Paul Kreuger
(Load Vocals), Ryan Baustert
(Guitar/Vocals), Joey Ulrich
(Guitar/Vocals), Aaron
Huppert (Bass), and Cory
Huppert (Drums).
Now onto
the record. The EP itself
is fairly short, only
containing four tracks, but
it is still very good. The
tracks are catchy and easy
to listen to. Paul’s vocals
are melodic, and the guitar
riffs range from soothing,
to hard and heavy. Cory’s
drums are tight and to the
point and the whole band
really connects all the way
through the EP.
First on
the EP is “Left Here.” The
intro is fairly heavy, but
not too heavy. Paul’s
lyrics are really
depressing, but he sings
with a tone that lightens
the music up a little bit.
The best
track on the EP, I found,
was “Endless Struggle.” The
track has a Hardcore-Metal
type guitar riff and I’m
assuming it would be fun to
play! The bridge is heavy
and the solo kicks ass...
both Ryan and Joey really
shred. The screams near the
end of the track are bone
chilling.
Overall,
the EP was produced very
well. Now I didn’t mention
this before, but Throw The
Fight is an unsigned band...
and they have got to be the
best unsigned band I have
ever heard. Way to go guys.
I give this EP an 8.4/10.
