THE RIVAL MOB "Hardcore 4 Hardcore" cassette


"Shiny new boys making some noise. Here's where we separate the men from the boys"

This is a teaser of sorts before their new 7" on Six Feet Under Records and contains a new track, a "remix" and two covers. "Hardcore For Hardcore" picks up exactly where Raw Life ended off and it's a true ripper. Taking equal cues from both 82' and 88', this is stripped down hardcore from arguably the best band going today. "Positive Scene" by CRIPPLED YOUTH may seem like an odd cover choice but it works quite well. "Mind Closed For Life 2010" receives the piano and horn treatment and suddenly it's the musical backdrop to a chase scene in Dragnet. PEARL JAM'S "Better Man" is taken from their WERS set and shows why Brendan is the most diverse vocalist in hardcore. One of the few bands truly worth giving a shit about...

Believe the hype? http://cgi.ebay.com/RIVAL-MOB-mix-tape-57-100-free-spirit-lockin-out_W0QQitemZ160411487406QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMusic_Cassettes?hash=item2559450cae

  1. this tape is extremely entertaining. brendans vocals sound 110% better than ever. the recording on this i can also hang with...whereas i have difficulty with the sound on the lp. positive scene was well done too.
