Here's a split CD from two of the finest unsigned hardcore bands I've heard. To be completely honest, these two bands would rival any of the signed hardcore bands out right now. Luti-Kriss delivers an intense display of passion that would be a definite hit with fans of Blindside and early Korn. Travail sticks to that classic hardcore style with those growly vocals that border on rap. This CD is a must have for any hardcore fan.
Other coverage for this album
The Phantom Tollbooth 1999Reviewed by Joe RockstrohLuti-Kriss is what you get when you take a couple of talented guys who practice long, tour hard, and follow their dream. Best described as nearly-chaotic hardcore/metal full of furious riffs, thick bass, and solid beats, this band is tight. Add some obvious Deftones influences, and some emotional rapping/screaming/singing/spoken words by lead throat Josh, and you get some surprisingly good music.…Similar sounding releases
