Ten Yard Fight
Hardcore Pride (Big Wheel Recreation)
by Joshua Brown
The use of the word “pride” in their EP’s title, coupled with the football reference of the band’s namesake, let you know what their target market is. (If you’re still not sure, I’ll give up a clue: It’s a type of punk that begins with “straight” and ends with “edge.” No, I won’t give any more clues, and please stop asking). The first question is, do they hit their target with conviction? The answer is yes, they replicate Sick of it All’s energy better than most. Next question: Is it on colored vinyl? Yes. Blue.
