Two Shot Blast EP Review


Two Shot Blast
Life In Your Hands EP

Lockjaw

Since the release of this debut EP, on Lockjaw, Leicester five-piece Two Shot Blast have split up. This is a shame, as, on the evidence of this EP, they had a lot to offer to the UK scene.

Every song here is hard, fast and loud. Opener 'Reclaim' sets the tone for what's to come with a furious, yet melodic onslaught, and the pace and intensity barely drops throughout the EP.

Highlights are 'Breaking Glass' and 'This City Sleeps Tonight', but really there's not one song which stands out prominently as superior to any other on this release.

Two Shot Blast appear to have been a band on the cusp of bigger things. It is unfortunate that they will never have the opportunity to achieve their potential. As an epitaph though, this EP is a strong showing from a tight and inventive band.

8 out of 10
