Portland’s AMUSEMENT features former members of FROM ASHES RISE, ARCTIC FLOWERS, and DEATHREAT playing a melodic, hook-driven style of music akin to bands like LEATHERFACE or DINOSAUR JR. Listening to the rough mixes of these tracks felt like discovering JAWBOX or HÜSKER DÜ before anyone even knew who they were. Incredibly competent songwriting that shows years of experience backed with passionate vocals that heave forth relevant lyrics that are firmly rooted in the foundations of hardcore.
