ZERO PROGRESS play "Furious Hardcore for the PUNKS! PUNKS! PUNKS!" Hailing from Northern California, ZP has been pretty ambitious in their ventures. They released their Derailed EP through their Piledriver Records label and are currently on their first full US Tour. I picked up the record from the band when they played the Broken Neck in East Austin with Vestiges a couple of weeks ago. They play very fast and very tight with some solid breaks thrown in for good measure. This 8 song EP clocks in at just under 9 minutes, but it has good replayability. Throughout, it gives me an early NY or Boston vibe with some of the faster parts reminding me of the first Suicidal Tendencies LP. The NY style break at the end of Out of Touch is excellent. I also liked the way Listen goes into We. Both are good songs, and they just compliment each other well. You can stream the whole record on their BandCamp page, and if you like what you hear, you should catch Zero Progress on the tail end of their US tour and pick up a copy the EP.HARDCORE RULES IN 2011!
