Jor - Blunt CD (Loudspeaker Records)

Hailing from Oxford Jor pack a mean punch with their intense metallic Hardcore sound that seems like an AK-47 in the middle of a fierce conflict. Jor owe their sound to the likes of Helmet and Visions of Disorder and like Stampin' Ground in their formative years have supported many touring UK and overseas punk and hardcore bands.

This 9 track album has a deep rooted power and due to its construction and arrangement it doesn't join the long line of monotonous metal shite that's around.
This lends itself in a heavier fashion to the likes of many Hardcore exponents from the SE scene like Sick of It All and Judge whilst retaining the menacing power of Will Haven.

Not something I usually go for but this is pretty cool and I love the intense power that flows from your bass speaker or should I say loudspeaker?!
