When a new band features ex-Vietnom members and releases a debut on Filled With Hate Records, one expects to hear some vicious hardcore. Quite the contrary with Blackriver Boys who instead come out swinging with a streetpunk sound that comes with some catchy hooks.
The songs leave me with an overall positive impression, especially cuts like “Worth The Loss” and “Final Notice”. It’s nothing you haven’t already heard before (especially if you’re familiar with bands like Whiskey Rebels) and the drums sound like they were messing around with a dustbin, but the potential is present and accounted for.
Score: 6.5 out of 10
