If you ask us how we at PunkRockTheory.com like our hardcore, the answer would be loud, raw and gritty. Now granted, most hardcore bands are loud. Otherwise they would be out there playing lounge music or something else that makes my toes curl. It’s the raw and gritty part that I don’t always find. I did find plenty of that though on “Home”, They And The Children’s debut full-length. Raw and gritty doesn’t even cover the load… this album is abrasive as fuck!
When they’re not busy venting all of their frustrations by beating the shit out of their instruments like the damn things still owe them money or fucked their girlfriend, they are throwing in these ugly sludgy parts that couldn’t spell DOOM more obvious even if I printed it in the biggest font size I can find.

If you are already slightly depressed going into this album, you might want to hide the knives and flush the pills down the toilet, cuz They And The Children like their noise so thick sunlight doesn’t even stand a chance of penetrating all the different layers.
Score: 7.5 out of 10
