Hailing from the Keystone State, US, Forced Hand is one of many bands doing its part to carry on the legacy of bands such as Lamb of God, BLS, and Pantera. Let’s face it; these icons are nearing their exit, and when taking a well-deserved bruised and bloodied bow, to whom will they pass the torch? It may not be Forced Hand, but then again, why the hell not? With their second EP, ‘War,’ the guys bring a brutal, unapologetic ass kicking the world seriously needs. Riding a balance of Blythe and Anselmo, with the occasional venture into Grindcore, Bryce Schreyer’s vocals pair nicely with the pummeling rhythms the band provides. There’s plenty of Thrash, crash, and threats to the vertebral bodies with songs that get in, do their damage, and go merrily along their way.

The first three tracks are gloriously violent and filled with melodic fury. Unfortunately, while stellar, these songs borrow heavily from a well-worn playbook, coming off as more adulation rather than innovation. But then enters the final track, “Bellicose,” where my eyes widened, and my jaw dropped. The band introduces clean(ish) vocals, multi-layered production, and even strings! Where the hell has this been, and more importantly, is there more? Combine more songs like this with a tincture of time, and this may be where the proverbial torch is passed. Outings like this assure me that the future of Metal is alive and well…and could be living in Pennsylvania. Who knew? Metal Digest
