Fast hardcore punk in the 80s style. Jim Shomo of Dark Thoughts on vocals, Eric & Tom of Blood Pressure on guitar & bass and Vince of Sickoids on drums. This is everything you could want from the genre. Further proof that Pittsburgh hardcore is on top of their game right now. If you are reading this you already know how good it is. Our take: Demo-on-vinyl from this all-star band featuring Jim Shomo of Dark Thoughts on vocals, Eric & Tom of Blood Pressure on guitar & bass and Vince of Sickoids on drums. These are people who have made some of my favorite hardcore punk records ever, and Loose Nukes plays with the confidence of a band who knows exactly what the fuck they are doing. The riffs are classics in the making, the vocals and lyrics are great, and the playing is perfect, tight enough to sound together but loose enough to convey the swagger this band deserves to carry themselves with. I could list a bunch of bands they remind me of, but it would be obvious… let’s just say this sounds like 100% classic US hardcore. You should pick this up immediately, because it’s limited to only 300 copies, and it’s not likely to stick around long.
