Murder Weapon

Nervous Wreck (Martyr/Deathwish Inc.)
by Adrian Bromley

With a slight modern edge to it, Virginia hardcore act Murder Weapon let loose an array of ’80s NYHC numbers that’ll surely rally the moshpit elite. While far from groundbreaking, Murder Weapon wear their influences on their sleeves and do them proud. With seven songs in just over 10-minutes, it might’ve been wiser for the band to include a few more songs to beef up their onslaught. But then again, strike fast and strike hard, right?
