about

Whiskey-swilling, shirtless, and full of banter during their live shows, this trio’s latest cassette, Dogs of War, recalls influential ‘80s/ early ‘90s NYC hardcore such as Cro-Mags and Sheer Terror with a touch of Cause for Alarm-era Agnostic Front. With cover artwork depicting a battered NOPD oinker resembling Ed Gein, “Tombs” kicks off the album with driving hardcore eventually leading into a mid-tempo breakdown, finished by a Jeff Hanneman-inspired dive bomb guitar solo. Tracks “HAHAHA” and “Kill” commence with a chunky bass intro followed by vibes that more closely resemble melodic crust punk than crossover hardcore. The thrashing tune “Destruction” showcases Ian Hennessey’s expeditious drumming, exuding finesse and speed. “Martial Law/Locked and Loaded” is at first a mid-tempo basher with intermittent, tribal tom-tom fills and guitar slides before catapulting into a hard-charging NYC ‘80s hardcore groove. “Shock Therapy” concludes the recording with solid ‘80s crossover thrash, fusing hints of D.R.I. and S.O.D. At a time when the NOLA hardcore scene is in somewhat of a lull—perhaps due to summer’s stupor—let us see if AR-15 can inject some energy. —Dan McCoy

One of my favorite new-ish bands in the New Orleans area! Vicious thrash/hardcore/crossover that never lets up throughout this entire cassette. - Bobby Paranoize
