The Swan King- Good Deeds EP




While this may be a blog focused on bringing seldom-heard local hardcore and punk to a far-greater audience, the Mastodon-loving metal fan in me is too restless over The Swan King's "Good Deeds" EP to not share it.

My band had the privilege of sharing a bill with The Swan King about a month ago, where the Chicago-based power trio proceeded to completely blow me away. Harking to mind big names such as Baroness and Kylesa, The Swan King's "Good Deeds" EP manages to strike an epic vein, while at the same time keeping one foot firmly planted in simplicity. This band doesn't need to be flashy, the riffs speak for themselves on a very basic level.
