Renee Heartfelt were a band ahead of their time. While that's possibly an all-too-often used excuse for why a band goes unnoticed until long after breaking up, it truly feels justified in this instance. Formed by musicians who had cut their teeth in a list of bands that reads like a who's who of late '90s / early 2000s hardcore (including <a href="spotify:artist:21Q67CZjEzKlMscGhAPZbd" data-name="Count Me Out">Count Me Out</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:5FBzEnwXCKl3GoZCeXGMNy" data-name="American Nightmare">American Nightmare</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:1eSctFV577MFentz3iJ5q1" data-name="Striking Distance">Striking Distance</a>, and Trial By Fire), the music they created captured the essence of "post-hardcore," quite literally: these songs could only be created by those with a strong working knowledge of hardcore's most potent elements, matched with a love for a broader palette of outside influences.
After releasing an impressive EP, the band entered the studio with Matt Squire, not yet the pop producer with credits on tracks by <a href="spotify:artist:66CXWjxzNUsdJxJ2JdwvnR" data-name="Ariana Grande">Ariana Grande</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:4AK6F7OLvEQ5QYCBNiQWHq" data-name="One Direction">One Direction</a>. When they began recording their lone full length 'Death of The Ghost' with Squire, he had just finished working on what would be his watershed effort, <a href="spotify:artist:20JZFwl6HVl6yg8a4H3ZqK" data-name="Panic! At The Disco">Panic! At The Disco</a>'s '<a href="spotify:album:2YeOhhJg3OWpN0F1VYPxtW" data-name="A Fever You Can't Sweat Out">A Fever You Can't Sweat Out</a>.' Needless to say, his production ear was on the cusp of being noticed by bigger artists and labels, and that quality is evident on the Renee Heartfelt recordings.
In the intervening 15 years, Renee Heartfelt has built an almost cult-like following. 6131 Records unearthed this phenomenal music for a discography collecting their releases and 4 rare or never-before-released songs, all newly remastered and sounding better than ever.
