Artist description from XTrustInYaselfX zine: horsell common are one the most original bands to come out of Australia. a perfect blend of hardcore, rock and punk, with melodic vocals, and screams and accasional rough vocals too. its hard to tell there influences because, ever song is so diferent and has so many different styles of music, there are breakdowns, melodic parts, chaotic parts and fast punk parts.

Music Style rock, hardcore, punk

Musical Influences all things rockin'

Artist History A three piece born out of Melbourne’s northern suburbs with a shared appetite for all things rock. While the band started jamming at the beginning of 2001, it wasn’t until January 2002 that horsell common played their first show to a full house at the Metro. They would be invited back to play the Metro five more times that year. Taking inspiration from various styles such as hardcore, punk and good old rock & roll, horsell common found their niche. In October of 2002 the band headed into the studio with one objective, “to create a noticeable gap between the bands live and studio sound without compromising style”. The results can be heard on their debut EP ‘a who’s who road of living’ through Dork Records. In the short time horsell common have been playing live, they have generated a strong and loyal following around the country, performing a show that caters to both hardcore and rock & roll punters.

Press Reviews A Who's Who Road Of Living Dork Records / MGM EP - 5 Tracks - While playing together as Horsell Common only accounts for about a year of these guys musical careers you wouldn't know it by listening to this EP. It follows on and steps up another level from their demo release last year. Slotting somewhere between hard rock and hardcore these guys have a great sound and great songwriting skills. From Melbourne's northern suburbs this three piece has members who also moonlight in bands like The Wick Effect and 101 Words. This EP opens up with 'Recital' and from then till the end the cd flows so well i was up to the 5th track before i realised shit it's nearly over. So it really pulls you in. My pick is track 5 'The First Lines' and the secret track hidden behind a few silent tracks is also pretty good, for something different. This one will impress, check it out, it's out now and look out for the name. The Verdict - 8.5/10 - Review By : Bomber
