Symptoms + Cures
Comeback Kid

October 9, 2010
I suppose you have been bored of listening to me always praising Victory Records and its bands, but the fact is the label just released one more fine sample of aggressive music. COMEBACK KID return with their fourth full-length album and they're definitely gonna make you want to dance fuckers!
The Canadian act took its name from a headline in a newspaper about hockey player Mario Lemieux coming back to the NHL. Anyway, COMEBACK KID have been around since 2002, when they released their debut demo/EP. The band started gaining recognition and new fans as time went by, and started "building" a respectable status. It was the contract with Victory that made the difference and made the band's name known out there.
Anyway, COMEBACK KID's music is what many people call Hardcore/Punk or melodic Hardcore. Melodic, yet aggressive guitars, up tempo rhythm section and screaming vocals are the only ingredients this Hardcore blend needs. If you like bands like HAVE HEART or CASEY JONES then you will definitely find many things to interest you in here. COMEBACK KID is not the typical band that a metalhead would like, but it surely is a passionate and aggressive modern act that has much to offer. Trust me!
