Carpathian

For the second day in a row, upon request, I'll be posting something for your listening pleasure. Today it's Carpathian, an Australian hardcore band that's recently made their way across the great ocean to American soil. And with their latest full length being released in the states under the Deathwish label, it's not a stretch to see them blowing up in North America soon.

Though their older stuff had a more generic "tough guy", and almost metalcore sound, their latest release, Isolation, and the EP that preceded it, Wrecked, have a much more modern, northeastern American sound(similar to that of Shipwreck AD and Have Heart). Isolation is by far their best release to date, and I'm anxious to see what else this band has to offer. If you appreciate progression, then give their older stuff a listen. It will blow your mind how much Carpathian has matured both musically and lyrically over time. Here's everything I have, and please, see this band on their next US tour! It won't happen too often, so you should go to a show whenever you have the chance.
