———————————————————
A band that was formed in Cleveland (USA) way back in 1990, Ringworm helped to shape the music of their genre over the years. The Promise was their 1993 debut full
length album, re-released and re-packaged by Deathwish with the addition of their 1990/91 demo and astounding artwork in a gatefold digipak format featuring the awesome design work of Jacob Bannon. Their sound is a definite mix of old school hardcore and aggressive metal, but its much more than just standard metalcore. They manage to blend a fusion of extreme metal sounds on top of a hardcore foundation. A jumble of styles including thrash, death and speed metal riffs as well as old school hardcore, particularly in the vocals. There are songs that include break neck thrash paced speeds and other that reek of death metal but they all are knitted together with the underlying attitude of hardcore. Sixteen short, sharp and to the point tracks that include Sideshow which starts with a stonking metal riff then quickly launches into a flat-out meltdown, and then into Flatline that briefly sounds almost Slayer-esque before turning to something much more hardcore – these songs typify the mix of styles and sounds right across this album.

5.0 out of 5 stars  Fantastic hardcore that gets you moving. Nice crunchy metallic riffs with quick bursts and changes really hits hard. Love it.
