Formed in 2012 by vocalist Damien Moyal (As
Friends Rust, Culture, Morning Again) and bassist Rich Thurston (Culture, Blood
Has Been Shed, Terror), ON BODIES executes a distinct brand of hardcore punk
that's just plain mean.
The music lies squarely at the intersection of modern and 90s hardcore, colored
with occasional streaks of metal and melody, and barrels forward at breakneck
speed, while Moyal's vocals scold with commanding, rabid precision. And always,
at the black, embittered heart of each song, is an uncomfortable and
highly-critical sense of urgency and discontent.
The upcoming 12" combines the band's most recent effort, the 'Unremarkably
Mortal EP', and their celebrated 'The Long Con' EP, making for one
uncompromising exploration of existential themes, and an unapologetic
lambasting of organized religion and zealotry. Demons
