Zorn, by Zorn

Zorn

by Zorn

supported by

eric F Tight, tight hardcore metal crossover that ups its ante with blistering arpeggios, riffs, and even an evil Siren's synth intro. Listen to Voices from the Past: It's an undead Van Halen in the dark Upside Down Ethereal Somewhere Else, pulsating with black, frantic tentacles of psychokinetic horror. It is hopeless to resist. Favorite track: Voices from the Past.

about

Finally, the long-awaited debut album from Philadelphia’s Zorn. While Zorn’s theatrical, (literally) scorching live shows are the stuff of legend, it would be a grave mistake to think the chaos they summon is all about the flaming swords, makeup, and leather corsets. Like Alice Cooper and David Bowie before them, Zorn knows you gotta have the songs to back up the image. Zorn’s metal-punk draws on death rock melody, intricate thrash riffing, and the bulldozing power of Discharge-inspired hardcore bands, but the songs are as infectious as they are intense. As with early Metallica, tracks like “Already Dead” and “Delco Devil Mosh” are built on memorable melodies that, in another time and place, might have formed the backbone of a killer glam rock single. I’m happy with my current reality, though, where Zorn is the kind of band who puts a devil standing atop a pile of flaming skulls on the cover of their album.

There's no slack in this EP. It blasts into under-three-minute thrash that would have anchored an awesome 80's MRR comp. Perfection. Give the gift of Hardcore Zorn to your loved ones this holiday season! eric F

My favorite albums of 2023, #6. The bastard child of early Venom and Black Flag, with just a touch of The Wipers' pop instincts. Amazingly underproduced, it sounds like it was recorded on a boombox. Levrikon
