Ribbonhead

Hardcore band Ribbonhead released their second EP, Animals, earlier this month. Ribbonhead is an audio assault straightaway from the first notes of just over 90 second open track "Gray". Lead singer Josh Glass leaves every shred of his vocals cord on the record studio floor as he screams and growls over the blazing instrumentals by Lee Zickwolf (bass/vocals) and John Sant (drums). Take a 13 minute break and scream along.
