I’m not
sure about the term ‘Melodic Hardcore’. A lot of bands pinpoint their music in a particular genre but does it really make sense? Discussions about genres nowadays are
endless and to be honest they kind of piss me off. The way I see it is the fact
that there are many ways to interpret genres. There are bands who are influenced
by Metal or Punk. Both influences create a different sound or style for a band.
How does ‘Worthwhile’
fit in here? Well, in my opinion they aren’t really melodic hardcore. I had a
closer look at their work and I can safely say that they blend a lot of
different genres into their sound. I hear some old school Hardcore, Punk, Pop
Punk and Ambient. Worthwhile really is one in a dozen. They remind of bands
like Defeater and Have Heart mixed up with the modern Melodic Hardcore scene. Their sound
is unique and will appeal a lot of people.
Are you in
need of new (melodic) hardcore/punk bands? Check out their full length album ‘Carry
On Kid’. Worthwhile is definitely worth a listen.
Their new
music video for the song ‘Unlovable’ is available now!
