Like a hammer on your skull - Existence from Stockholm, Sweden brings a unique style of dark and menacing hardcore heavily influenced by heavy metal and the NYHC bands of the late eighties and early to mid nineties such as Merauder and Dmize. The seminal debut album 'Go to Heaven' is a masterclass in metallic hardcore songwriting by the strong beating heart of Stockholm hardcore. Songs that take you on a journey from a classic metallic breakdown riff to acoustic guitar sections to sword samples needed a hand that was not afraid of the complexity, leading to Jonah Falco of Fucked Up on mixing duties giving this the depth that it deserved. At times introspective, and at other times classic brute force, the themes of the lyrics are well summed up with the painted artwork by Nora Löwenberg of a face behind shattered glass, exploring the multifaceted nature of humanity and the ever changing place of the self in today’s global world.
