Hurtlocker
Hurtlocker formed in 1998 and after several years of moving
up the local ranks, have finally released their debut album,
Fear In A Handful Of Dust, in 2005 on Napalm Records
(an atypical signing for a label that normally specializes in
Euro gothic bands).
Handful Of Dust isn't quite the standard metalcore release,
as musically it's more rooted in vicious old-school thrash
(bordering on death metal riffing), though the vocals are
unmistakeably in the metalcore style.
The vocals are one-dimensional even by hardcore standards,
rendering the songs very samey, but there's no shortage of
potent thrash riffs here, as well as generally tight musicianship
and a fine, crunchy production.
They managed a followup two years later but have since broken up.
