Culprits is a band that you've likely never heard. What the hell is wrong with you? This New Mexico four-piece serves up five tracks of fast-paced and in-your-face hardcore in less than six minutes. The music is intense and the words are penned with quite the chip on the shoulder.
“January 15th” is a minute blast of high octane hardcore that brings together the best of Outbreak, Striking Distance, and Internal Affairs. The hits don't stop there. “Broken Promises” is equally as blazing and lyrically brings to mind the emotional ramblings of Wes Eisold and Jacob Bannon. Culprits rip through a total of five tracks ending with “Goodbye/Good Riddance,” the ultimate farewell statement to a failed relationship.
If you're pissed off and love to rage than Culprits is for you. Look for some new vinyl releases and a possible full-length this year. My guess is that they'll all be just as good.
