Last week end I was in Barcelona chillin' with some dudes from Toulouse, and they were booking a show for Miles Away, Cruel Hand, both melodix hardcore bands This is A Standoff and Actionmen and the first show ever for A Bridge To Many, the local support for this night. A Bridge To Many started the show, playing their first concert ever and I had a blast: this 15 year old drummer is gonna be huge. They play some fast hardcore with melodic parts like Carry On, Count Me Out, American Nightmare (they covered AM/PM for the pleasure of some chosen few) or Another Breath. And it went good. Can't wait to have some tracks on a demo. Then, Actionmen played. I saw them last summer in Toulouse and the surprise effect wasn't the same this time but they are really good at what they do. Cruel Hand and Miles away dudes were stoked seeing this "musical"/theater play .
Following up next, This Is A Standoff features ex members of Belvedere. Ok.
I didn't get that much into the melodies and the whole thing was just boring.
Co headlining the show, Cruel Hand, coming straight from Maine-USA, just settle the score. They feature some Outbreak members. Raw, fast and aggressive hardcore, really well played (the drummer is awesome) and they ended with Cro-Mags' World Peace. MASSIVE.
Then, Miles Away played. I expected some modernfag hardcore but their set is pretty straight forward and agressive. They definitely have a good attitude on stage and covered Count Me Out and Floorpunch. The dudes in Cruel Hand and Miles Away are really good ppl and I can only encourage you to support them.
