Release date: January 1, 2023

I had just finished working on some fiction early in the morning and I realized I was hankering for some punk rock! Just like with my last review I wasn’t feeling like something in-depth or long—I wanted a quick blast—something fast and full on menacing!

I checked out a few demos but eventually I came to Demo 2023 by S.H.I.T.! Featuring four short tracks (two of which I believe are covers) this is just enough to get the blood rushing to your head! The guitar tone is crusty, the drums are pummeling and the vocals are purely “old-school hardcore”! Overall the sound is a bit standard but everything is put together nicely and in the long run I have no problem saying that this is something worth listening to! I mean—it’s super short! But put it on a loop for three or four times and you definitely have a solid listen and a head banging session!

All of the songs on this are pretty great but my favorite would need to be the very last one titled “Never Surrender”! I will also mention that these guys are from Ontario, Canada! Something else worth throwing out there is that this was uploaded by “grindwar channel” on YouTube. This is a great channel for finding new music of a heavier variety…so what are you waiting for? Hit up grindwar and listen to this demo—and hopefully you will find much much more! -Devin J. Meaney
