Press Reviews PUNK & HIS BROTHERS : Blessed With Ecstasy - Hurry Up ! Melodic Hardcore from Italy !!! 5 tracks in the vein of Pennywise,these guys know how can play Hardcore stuff. Too Late is one of the my favourite song,this young killer combo has surprised me too much. The rhythmical structure is full of energy and melodic at the same. Along the duration of this demo cd you’re obliged to dance in your fucking room or what you want, but you’re obliged to dance. Don’t be nervous if you got a problem....listen this band,you will be better for sure, I love it. (Danny D.)
