Release - The Pain Inside
Alright this EP is fucking sweet. It featured Rob Fish (Ressurection/108) on vocals. It's heavy, fast, and pissed off New Jersey straight edge hardcore at its finest. If you're into Turning Point/Youth Of Today mixed with the heaviness of Raw Deal or Breakdown this is for you. It's a great EP (though I've read through interviews Rob sees Release as more of a necessary phase) and like the other albums I've reviewed, yes, I highly recommend you get this. When I first got this album I must have listened to it on repeat for a week and a half. I can imagine the energy at one of their shows back then because you can hear it in the music.
The quality is pretty good for its time, but I'm a sucker for recordings that aren't too rough and not too clean. To me, it's perfect. The intro is hard as fuck and it goes right into one of the best songs on the EP, Drug Free Youth, which should be covered more nowadays if you ask me. I don't have a lot more to say about this EP other than it rules and Floorpunch probably wouldn't be a band if Release never existed. It's great youth crew hardcore from NJ.
