This new single, “Wishful Thinking”, by Slunk sounds like some Age of the Quarrel era Cro-Mags shit with maybe some Sheer Terror.
It’s like I’m back at the Capitol Ballroom in DC in the 1990s and this one of the bands playing the Hardcore Superbowl that year. And they are killing it!
Shit starts off low, I was about to turn it up, luckily I waited because it came on full force. This song has the slow chugga chugga parts, the fast hardcore shit, the breakdowns, the bass solos, the tribal tom beats i.e. it’s like they shot their veins full of hardcore and the shit acted like some sort of hardcore super solider serum.
Needless to say, I won’t fucking complain if they are on the bill at my next NYC hardcore show.
