Continents

The quintet have natural melodic leanings but must have felt compelled to get down and angry on their first record.

A brutal debut album that is loud, aggresive and totally addictive.

While we don’t like throwing around terms like ‘buzz’ or ‘hype’ without reason, it’s hard to deny the commotion surrounding up-and-coming UK hardcore act Continents right now. Formed in 2010, they’ve built a solid following in the United Kingdom and are set to take on the world with the release of debut album Idle Hands, which is packed with powerhouse vocals, technical guitars and hard-hitting breakdowns perfect for the mosh pit. To get the lowdown on ‘the UK’s premiere hardcore band’, Killyourstereo.com had a chat to vocalist Phil Cross about the debut album, what fuels their music and making it in the UK hardcore scene.
