Barnburner
Bangers (New Romance for Kids)
With the mind-numbing title to this debut and songs like “Beer Today, Bong Tomorrow,” “Wizard Island” and “Brohemoth,” you would figure these local heshers would have their tongues firmly placed in cheeks, but with double-barrelled riffs this blazing, these “brahs” are hardly just in it for the yuks. Bang the head that doesn’t beer-bong. 7/10 Trial Track: “Beer Today, Bong Tomorrow” (Johnson Cummins)

Black Ships // Montreal Mirror
Black Ships
Omens (New Romance For Kids/FAB)
After two all too brief EPs, these locals make good, with the brutal blast on this full-length being entirely worthwhile. Now that Cursed have given up the crown, Black Ships are only too eager to pick it up with a completely punishing blitzkrieg. Producer Julien Brousseau manages the impossible task of making everything louder than everything else, with needles firmly planted in the red and the band more focused and to the point than ever. As far as modern Canadian hardcore goes, it just doesn’t get any better than this. 8.5/10 Trial Track: “The End” (Johnson Cummins)
