Across the sea #1: Reignition “The epitome of free will” 7"


Track list
Intro
Fire breather
Sinking

Reignition “The epitome of free will”

Reignition is a band from Pennsylvania and one of hardcore best kept secret. In their two year as a band they released a 7” single called “The epitome of free will” under Think Fast! Records. This record has the influence of early nineties hardcore bands like SNAPCASE, REFUSED and BURN. There’s three tracks on this release, opening with an “Intro” an almost a minute instrument only assault. Next is “Fire breather” which became an instant favorite. This song reminds me of some early post hardcore bands in terms of guitar sound match with spoken words and growls that would be perfect for sing along in every hardcore show. In the song “Sinking” you will clearly hear the 90’s hardcore influence that will make you check your old record collection or your mp3 files and look for old albums of REFUSED or SNAPCASE so you will not lose the momentum when listening to this record. Because this made me want to ask for more from these guys, so for now I will wait for their full length and see if they still have the same intensity and emotion as they have on this release.
