Instead of just blabbing on about some hyped up bands everyone probably already knows by now, I would like to introduce a few bands that most people wouldn&rsquo;t have heard of just yet, which a number of people from different circles in the music scene have brought to my attention.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cleft<\/strong><br \/>For Fans Of: Three Trapped Tigers, Adebisi Shank, and Giraffes? Giraffes!<br \/><strong>Cleft<\/strong> are a gem I found through friends that run the Musical Mathematics zine. Completely instrumental, <strong>Cleft<\/strong> produce wave after wave of stop-start rhythms and infectious melodies. Whilst only a two-piece (guitar\/drums) they have recently put out a 5 track CD consisting of some seriously well-written music without any riff ever outstaying it\u2019s welcome. A lot of it is frantic, and all of it is fun to listen to.

After checking them out it was pretty obvious that they are completely on top of their game. If you like your hardcore fast, raw and with the occasional gang vocals then look no further. Even with just a demo EP to go by, I\u2019d say <strong>The Pact<\/strong> are ones to watch for sure. Mosh your heart out.

This means that when a few of my friends across the pond, in Knoxville, told me about <strong>Tir Asleen<\/strong> I had quite high expectations to begin with. <strong>Tir Asleen<\/strong> blew away those expectations, instantly. Very rarely am I so impressed by a band that I find myself playing one of their songs about 4\/5 times in a row upon discovering them but this was one of those rare occasions. These guys have it all; interesting song structures, melodic yet powerful guitar work and distinctively passionate\/aggressive vocals (check out the drop in <em>&lsquo;Grizzlies&rsquo;<\/em>!). It really is only a matter of time before they become the next big thing in the screamo scene.<\/p>\n<p>&amp;amp;lt;a href=&ldquo;http:\/\/tirasleen.bandcamp.com\/album\/oregon-trail-7&rdquo; data-mce-href=&ldquo;http:\/\/tirasleen.bandcamp.com\/album\/oregon-trail-7&rdquo;&amp;amp;gt;Oregon Trail 7&quot; by Tir Asleen&amp;amp;lt;\/a&amp;amp;gt;<\/p>\n<p>Tir Asleen links: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/tirasleen\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a>|<a href=\"http:\/\/tirasleen.bandcamp.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bandcamp<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Further information on <strong>Enjoyment Records<\/strong> can be found on their <a href=\"http:\/\/www.enjoymentrecords.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Official Website<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Enjoyment-Records\/100246290070620\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/enjoymentrecs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/enjoymentrecords.tumblr.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tumblr<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/EnjoymentRecords\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Youtube<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/enjoymentrecords.bandcamp.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bandcamp<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On this weeks edition of Something For The Weekend, Enjoyment Records&rsquo; Dale Robinson takes over the reigns as we continue our series of guest writers.\u00a0 Formed\u00a0just\u00a0over a year ago, Enjoyment Records is a small Independent label based out of Norfolk.
