    The Bronx has turned rage and desperation into a perpetual state of being--and (IV) into a monument not just of survival, but also evolution.

    With power chord hooks and a newfound innocence, this is a side of The Bronx you’ve yet to hear.

    This LA-based hardcore band turns out their most consistently solid set of songs yet; a dozen tracks of distorted guitars, machine gun drumming and throat-reddening vocals.
