An American
hardcore punk band from Portland, Maine, “Cruel Hand” band composes an electric
blend of styles that embodies anything but the serenity of their surroundings.
Formed in the year 2006, Cruel Hand's sound is equal parts New York hardcore
and west coast thrash, all with a twist of their own. With five years of heavy
touring and three LPs under their belt, the new decade will see “Cruel Hand” continue to mature and live up to their hard earned
road reputation. Their fresh release, 2010’s "Lock and Key”, was considered as the most refined till date release
and since then there is no looking back for the band. With a freshly solidified
lineup and indisputable live show, expect to see them in your corner of the
world soon.

Cruel Hand was
originally formed as a side project of the punk band outbreak, thus creating an
opportunity for band members to play different instruments. The year 2007,
marked the release of their debut album Without a Pulse, on 6131 Records. They
played shows around the U.S. with Trash Talk and The Mongoloids, touring the
United States three times and a full European tour. The band also signed with
Bridge 9 for their second album, Prying Eyes, which was recorded at Getaway
Recording Studios and God City Studios in 2008.
Under their own title, the band released 7" EP in 2010, featuring a
song from their third album, Lock & Key and an unreleased track. Cruel hand
is greatly influenced by the Cro-Mags, early Metallica, and Madball, and are
often compared to now defunct Toronto band No Warning. Lock & Key was
recorded in Wakefield, MA with producer Jay Maas (Verse, Bane, Defeater) and
highlights what Cruel Hand is capable of both lyrically and musically. In the
words of the vocalist Chris Linkovich, “ Lock&
Key is definitely not a 'Prying Eyes Part 2'. It's not just a progression
either, we feel like this is our defining release. We weren't scared to bring
all of our influences to the table, no matter what the genre of music. We spent
a lot more time with guitar sounds, a lot of layering and melody and other
second guitar work. As far as lyrics, I reached my goal of working with a lot
of different subject matters and also using a little bit of melody with
different vocal patterns and delivery. The record is ill and we listen to it
every day.”
Coming straight out of Maine, Cruel hand will be
earning their place at the top of the hardcore heap. Since the release of Cruel
Hand’s Bridge Nine debut, Prying Eyes in 2008, the band has been a relentless
touring machine and one of the tightest bands in the hardcore world. Cruel Hand
has shared the stage with bands like Have Heart, Bane, Terror, Death Before
Dishonor, and more, and will continue to tour the globe non-stop in support of
Lock & Key. So be on the lookout and stay tuned to this band to have a time
of your life.
