Bloodsports

In the cellars, clubs, and DIY spaces of New York, bloodsports grew into one of the most striking new names of the local underground. On their long-awaited debut Anything Can Be A Hammer, they blend the tension of post-hardcore with the texture of slowcore and the catharsis of noise. Fragile guitar lines slowly build up to unpredictable eruptions, while introspection and intensity constantly keep each other in balance. The Het Brooklynse four-piece sounds fragile and explosive at the same time, with songs that crawl under the skin and a live reputation that now takes them far beyond the city limits.
