Rampage – Limit of Destruction — Lockin’ Out, 2007

Boston-based hardcore outfit Rampage unleash thirteen tracks of thrash influenced hardcore on Limit of Destruction. Some of the cuts here take on a definite New York hardcore vibe, while others incorporate a more tharshy and early crossover sound of D.R.I. The title-track was definitely my favorite song on this 12", it had a good groove and nice 90's styled breakdown.

Lyrically, vocalist Josh Perrault is very upfront and oftentimes can come across as offensive. But if you read the liner notes, you'll find an interesting tidbit, "Some people, including band members, don't like certain words in our songs. Rampage is not prejudice against any group." So from that you can deduce that Perrault just likes to tell it like it is, which you can take at face value.

Limit of Destruction is a pretty good spin. The album is available from Lockin' Out, so if you're at all interested in this, you best jump on it now before the limited colored vinyl has all been swooped up and only available on eBay for ridiculous amounts.

The Verdict? Those expectations were met. It'd be silly to say Songs of a Lost World is a "return to form" as the band and … Read more

There are few bands that hit with the mix of raw emotion and musical talent as a live City Mouse show. There are even fewer bands that can capture that live feeling on a record. It’s been a long 7 years since Get Right, but So Far Out keeps it moving as if no time has passed. Of course, the … Read more

Ideally, I would be a bit more interested in art. In visual art- paintings, sketches, MS Paint monstrosities- whatever. I wish I knew more about the meaning of a brush stroke or even had the desire to know more about the meaning of a brush stroke. I spend a lot of time listening to music and, subsequently, I see a … Read more
