Do you want some Cage Fight arenrsquot pulling any punches. Dealing in vicious, old school hardcore aggro, the anger and frustration of their selftitled debut album is the perfect catharsis for our times.nbsp Originally started as little more than a bedroom project by TesseracT guitarist James Monteith and longtime friend and collaborator, bassist MC Jon Reid, by their own admission Cage Fight were simply a project to unleash some frustration, and nostalgic tribute to the music of their youth, bands like Slayer, Terror, Hatebreed, Biohazard and Stampinrsquo Ground.nbsp Quickly, though, the idea began to grow legs, as they shared the music theyrsquod made among friends, and they realised it was too good not to do something more permanent with.nbsp Bringing in drummer Nick Plews, Cage Fight were completed in February 2021 by the addition of singer Rachel Aspe, a French national who James met eight years ago when TesseracT and her former band Eths crossed paths. Spotting her doing a Black Dahlia Murder vocal cover on Instagram ndash via a post by that bandrsquos singer Trevor Strnad, who himself appears on the track Eating Me Alive James invited her in, and the band were complete.nbsp The result is one of the most furious and angry hardcore records to emerge from the UK in years. Cage Fight LP is available for home delivery from Vinyl Records London, only £22
