Omegas- Blast of Lunacy


This is the latest release from Montreal's Omegas and boy is it a good one.  With their huge NYHC (New York Hardcore) influence, this record really shows that side of the band.  Each song has hints of NYHC and good ol' street punk to combine the right amount of snottiness while maintaining a pissed off sound.  These characteristics make help make sense of the records title, "Blasts of Lunacy".  

It is often hard to keep up the momentum on a record this long (23 minutes), but they succeed in doing so throughout the whole thing.  There is no dull moment in this record and you should definitely pick it up.

This bands unique sound, paired with their insane live shows makes them definitely a group to keep your eyes and ears on in the future.
