Homesick Abortions

Homesick Abortions are veterans of the Los Angeles Hardcore Crust scene, having roamed the gutters since 2003 regularly performing with Leftover Crack, A Global Threat, Death March, and more. Despite that, their catalog of music only features two full length releases, a catalog of E.P.'s, Splits, and compilation features. That is, until now! Six years after their masterfully merciless LP Means to an End this thrashcore quartet is back with twelve savage tracks in The Art of Apathy which was released by Obscene Records on May 1st (May Day.)

A lot of the bands songs such as Happily Ever After and Production Recall which features Skinhead Rob and Brad Logan) consist of incredibly fast, blaringly distorted, in-your-face instrumentation. At the same time all four members quickly take turns screaming their lines, but their screams are extremely different from one another and that's one of the main aspects that makes their music pretty dynamic. Guitarist and vocalist Jonny Grunwald's screaming has more body and in some ways, is more reminiscent of late 80's hardcore punk. On the other hand guitarist Whitney Marshall's screaming, which honestly sounds more like someone is dying in agony or being slowly tortured. It's a pretty cool contrast that H//A have embraced, mastered and made their signature vocal characteristic.

Members include: Whitney Marshall, Jonny Grunwald, Ryan Clark, and Evan Green.
Labels include: Dedicated Wreckers, LTE Records, Hellcat Records, Obscene Records.
