Complicity Is a Weapon

(Potencial Hardcore)

Initially granted ink here upon its 2024 issuance, Complicity merits fresh regard. Pugilistic guitar lashes out. Verve is ubiquitous. The line-up is skeletal and sports a skewed tiara of adamant vocals. Scorched-earth strafing from which feebletons will scamper, but that will compel tattooed shavelings to bellow amidst the mayhem.

Recommended: "Defiance," "Keep On Rollin'," "Suburban Rats," "The Fool," "Never Surrender," "The Flame," "Black Tears," "The Void," "The Squad," "Broken Boots"
