To my knowledge, Leeds has pretty much had a strong hardcore scene since the beginning of this century, perhaps even earlier. The latest band to spring forth from its pits are Hex. After showing much promise on their 2016 demo, last month they released their debut proper EP, ‘La Voisin’, and fuck me does it tear your head right off. The raw production goes hand in hand with Hex’s fast, no-nonsense visceral delivery. In under ten minutes, you can feel a surge of adrenaline obliterate your veins and nerves. Highly recommended ones to watch, especially since they display humour with their vitriolic rage.
