User Album Review
American Standards is one of the few standout bands in hardcore music nowadays that truly speaks to the essence of the genre. Their lyrics are heartfelt, filled with raw emotion and have the ability to start mosh pits, as well as, being able to speak to the listener. With their latest release, “The Death of Rhythm and Blues” they have pulled out all of the stops and kicked it up a few notches. Overall, the album is incredibly solid and astonishingly impressive. It’s not often I find myself enjoying a newer hardcore band as much as I do with American Standards so they have really put something together that they can be rightfully proud of. You won’t regret a single second of this 14-minute chaotic journey that you will find yourselves pulled into! --- new-transcendence.com
