BLACKLISTED
"We're Unstoppable" (Deathwish; 2005)
Reviewed by Mike SOS
Brimming with confidence and stacked with chops hardcore enough to take you out like a windmill kick to the head, Blacklisted embodies the unique spirit of beatdown hardcore on "We're Unstoppable," an unbridled collection of the band's past efforts with some new stuff thrown in for good measure.
In the vein of bands like Madball, Hatebreed, and Terror, this Philadelphia-based outfit chugs its way through ten tracks of no-nonsense, take no prisoners, full assault hardcore, as tracks like "3800" and "My Advice" burst through the speakers with all of the menacing aggression you'd find in the pit.
Blacklisted aren't reinventing the wheel here, but they are holding it down with conviction, and are a surefire moshpit picker-upper.

Rating Guide:
A classic. This record will kick your ass.
Killer. Not a classic but it will rock your world.
So-so. You've heard better.
Pretty bad. Might make a nice coaster.
Self explanatory. Just the sight of the cover makes you wanna hurl.
