Turmoil - The Process Of (1999)


Philly metallic hardcore. Tough and super-pissed, and with big bonehead mosh energy (BBME) but enough dissonance and compositional chops to convey something deeper than "I am very mad." If you're wondering whether or not there's a chugga-chugga breakdown over which the vocalist lists things that he absolutely WILL NOT do: you fuckin' know there is.

Track listing:
1. Playing Dead
2. The Discipline of Self Loathing
3. The Locust
4. Killing Today for a Better Tomorrow
5. Impending Doom Theory
6. Dear Jon
7. Let It Die
8. Fear of Falling Down
9. Ever Man My Enemy
11. Staring Back
12. Throwing Stones


More great hardcore from the same year:

  1. I'll give this a chance. Though, the metalcore scene was at a slow lull at this point. Victory records was only a few years away from becoming full of swoosh hair emo bands and their ripping off bands reputation.
