Review: STREET SWEEPER S/T (Shoe City Records)
Out of Boston, MA we have STREET SWEEPER with their debut EP. What you get here is five songs of hard as nails New York style hardcore with a little Clevo flavor thrown in the mix. It is equal parts thrashy fast parts and bouncy mid-paced parts. I like that they give equal love to both, as I've always been more of a fan of hardcore with some speed as opposed to straight mosh the whole time.
Lyrically, Mark deals with both personal and societal trouble. Facing his own demons as well as demons of the world around him. They're simple and straight forward but don't come off as naive. Mark's vocals are raw as fuck and he sounds pissed.
If you're into CRO-MAGS, KILLING TIME, or ONE LIFE CREW, I'd definitely recommend picking this up. I'm not sure what's up with these guys as far as tours and what's not but I'm sue they'll be doing something soon.
