Interview: Sworn Enemy – Sal LaCoCo and the boys stand and deliver

Posted by Morgan Y Evans - Walking Bombs on Tuesday, April 29, 2014 at 5:46 PM (PST)

I’ve been bumping the new Sworn Enemy lately, as anyone who knows me well can attest to. “Stand And Deliver” and the Slayer-core of “No Mercy” are just metallic hardcore boiled down to a venomous essence. The windmill, circle and flying punch pit potential to this shit is unreal! It’s all good. After all, we are all Living on Borrowed Time, as the band remind us on their latest platter of the same name. No mercy, no surrender.

This is hardcore with a real knowledge of the foundations that make heavy metal, crossover and especially street hardcore legit, No trends. No poses. Just making sure the real power of our underground music culture isn’t “Slipping Away”. Thanks to the real warriors who fight this good battle. Some names have changed, but this is still the same Sworn Enemy you can rely on to pack a punch for a bag lunch. Ok, that rhymed but was kind of dorky. Basically, these guys remind you to fight back and not be held down.

“…And never lose focus!”

Album Review: Sworn Enemy – Living On Borrowed Time

Sworn Enemy are for a certain type of hardcore and metal fan. If you didn’t like them before for some stupid reason, Living On Borrowed Time isn’t going to change things. And that’s good for the rest of us.

The new album from veteran Sal LoCoco’s street smart crew continues to meld thrash and late 90’s Biohazard-esque mosh core with a certain “maniacal” savvy, anger and conviction. Titles like “Do Or Die” and “Hard Way” plus spine crippling double bass and Overkill-type 80’s thrash solos are arm in arm here with pit friendly distorted havok. It is always refreshing to hear something this pissed, violent sounding and yet capable of making old riffs sound new again, not to sound too critical. The band are walking familiar ground, but the spirit and performances remind you what you love about this type of shit.
