Knocked Loose came back to a sold out Starland Ballroom and destroyed it. The Oldham County, Kentucky based hardcore band came through New Jersey on Friday night on their A Tear in The Fabric of Life Tour. The massive cross-country tour has thirty stops with multiple sold-out shows. They have support from some great bands including Movements, Kublai Khan, and Koyo.Â
A Tear in The Fabric of Life is their latest LP which was released this past October on Pure Noise Records. This album is brutally heavy, and their live shows prove to be the same. Front man Bryan Garris has vocals that can cut through you and leave you for dead. This is backed up by lead guitarist Isaac Hale who comes in with insane riffs that are technical at times and can smash you in the face a moment later.Â
Their set consisted of tracks from their latest album A Tear in The Fabric of Life, as well as Laugh Tracks, A Different Shade of Blue, and Pop Culture. From start to finish the show was insanely brutal with no signs of slowing down at all. Knocked Loose are bringing in crowds that hardcore shows have never seen before. They are crushing each night right now and hopefully will be back soon for more.Â
