“Skullpresser is metal influenced hardcore punk from members of Mannequin Pussy, The Wonder Years and other Philadelphia bands (Birthday Boy and One Dead Three Wounded). Formed in 2022 and with a demo EP released the next year, Jared Birdeye (vocals), Colins ‘Bear’ Regisford (bass), Michael Kennedy (drums), Sam Tropio (guitar) and Dan Zimmerman (guitar) write fast, heavy and violent songs about human struggle under the oppression of so-called ‘leaders’. Their new release, ‘Positions of Power’, which is out September 6th on Born Losers Records, pushes that sound further and the result is as punishing as it is unrelenting. The message is clear: We are all at risk. Oppression is all too common. Division is a tool.“
Released about 10 days ago, this is the latest from Philly hardcore band Skullpresser. A highly potent piece of musical protest and political passion, Positions of Power makes the band’s stance against oppression across the board abundantly clear. With a high octane composition and goes in for the kill from the jump, Skullpresser blends together melodic elements of metalcore with classic hardcore punk delivery throughout their latest effort. With over 1K views on Youtube, as of the publishing of this article, this is a anthemic political call to action for the ages.
