Album Review: Born Free - Sorrow

Mark Hebblewhite

"Most tracks register under two minutes and there's not a wasted moment or pretentious artistic excursion."

Born Free Profile

Are you sick of hardcore attempting to be something it's not with endless labels and confusing sub-genres? If so then Melbourne outfit Born Free have the remedy for what ails you.

Their debut platter Sorrow follows a series of well received short releases, offering crushing straight up hardcore with a defined metallic edge. Most tracks register under two minutes and there's not a wasted moment or pretentious artistic excursion. Gang vocals, intense breakdowns and most importantly riffs that dent steel ensure that Sorrow doesn't outstay its welcome and instead will burn a hole into your musical consciousness.
