CHEECH - Old Friends - MCD
WTF Records
Boston`s Cheech returns for another round of thrash-infused hardcore. While other bands retread their well-worn musical paths, Cheech pushes their own boundaries on "Old Friends". Fast, old-school hardcore is melded with Maiden-esque guitar licks while melodic basslines underscore a blues-based solo. Two-step drum breas build to sing-a-long choruses. And theress more than one big breakdown slipped in somewhere. All this, while spitting their sarcastic lyrical take on subjects ranging from social media, to scene politics, and cult films. Also included is a cover of Bulldog Courage`s "Old Friends Die Hard" a heartfelt send-off to two members of BDC that recently passed away. Cheech always offers something for everyone, from the punk rocker, to the metalhead to the hardcore kid, and "Old Friends" is more proof of that fact.
