Code Orange Kids - Cycles (2011)

When I was eighteen I had no idea what my musical voice was or even how to execute it with any kind of maturity and professionalism. That's obviously not a problem for Code Orange Kids. Fresh out of High School, these guys and gal write and play songs as if they've been doing it forever. Even though it appears seasoned, Cycles still has a very youthful pulse to it. This is definitely not a rehash of the old and tired. It's simple... this E.P. kills. It is violent and filthy, affirming and destructive. Combining Converge and Cursed-esque tones, D-beat feel, and a Spazz/Torche attention span, Code Orange Kids craft an onslaught of hardcore that's pretty "top of the food chain". It's pretty easy to understand this band's relatively meteoric rise through the underground ranks. Look out for their split 7" with Full of Hell coming out on Topshelf Records soon and their full length coming out in the near future through Deathwish Inc. Yep...Jacob already snatched 'em up. That should tell you something.
