Daimian Moyal Returns With ON BODIES

The voice behind such bands as As Friends Rust, Morning Again, Culture and even a stint in Shai Hulud returns to the fold with latest project ON BODIES. Retaining a similiar vocal style to last band As Friends Rust but with perhaps a harder egde, On Bodies is definitely worth checking out. More details below..

If you’re familiar with (and a fan of) the South Florida Hardcore scene of yesteryear and today, you’ll be extremely impressed and pleased with ON BODIES. The band boasts a ridiculous pedigree of: Rich Thurston (founding member of Culture, also played in Terror and Blood Has Been Shed); Damian Moyal (currently fronting As Friends Rust, formerly of Culture, Morning Again, Bird Of Ill Omen and Shai Hulud); Richard “Chip” Walbert (Destro, Dance Floor Justice, Where Fear And Weapons Meet, and Until The End); Julio Marin (Destro, Glasseater); and Chad Kishick (Dead Weight, Know The Score).

With the debut EP ‘Planet Hospice’, ON BODIES arrives with a unique and desperate brand of insight and rage. Deeply focused on feelings of futility in a world that seems to promise more than it provides, ‘Planet Hospice’ is the first glimpse of a startling, powerful output by some of the hardcore community’s most seasoned veterans

While so much of today’s heavy music tends to force a brutality that is more style than substance and more technique than torment, ON BODIES explores the forgotten tenets of raw, questioning hardcore.

For a sample of one the songs off the EP, “We Must”, head on over to the band’s Facebook page.
