Fury - Paramount (2016)

Fury - Paramount (2016) (Triple B)

Paramount has arrived and Fury are back to kick down the damn door. While I have heard rumblings of the band since their inception in 2014, I’ll be the first to tell you that I am very guilty of sleeping on their past two releases. This is a tried and true hardcore record, and it grabbed me in a way that contemporary hardcore LPs have failed to do in the past five years or so. It’s possible that I’m just in the mood for this sort of thing, but man did this record hit the spot!

I can hear Burn, Bad Brains, Turning Point, and Uniform Choice in their sound. Make no mistake – Fury’s sound remains surprisingly musical considering that this is a record that is not afraid to pummel you. When both guitars are riffing in unison, it is hard to deny that something special is happening. The songwriting here is excellent, and I especially like the way the songs are woven together to really flow cohesively. This shit right here is so powerful and passionate. My favorite album from last year.
