Scowl are one of the most explosive bands to pop up in the hardcore scene the last few years, playing amazing sets at outbreak festival and garnering worldwide recognition.
After releasing their debut album How Flowers Grow in 2021. Scowl have announced they’re ready for round two with Psychic Dance Routine which is releasing April 7th. Along with that they also released a kickass single and video for a track called Opening Night.
This single is massive. It showcases a new sound for the band, it’s great to see them experiment here. Don’t get me wrong I love classic chugging hardcore but let’s be honest it’s always more punk to branch out, keep the aggression and express that in new ways and Scowls expression has much more melodic vocals to what we’re used to be this isn’t a bad thing at all.
The track starts off with distorted feedback from guitars which is just like any hardcore track but with Kats vocals here it sounds more punk/ almost Misfits inspired.
I need to give credit to them for absolutely smashing this sound. This makes me so excited to check out the Psychic Dance Routine on April 7th.
