BLACK BUTTON
Bandcamp
With their second release, BLACK BUTTON picks up where they leave off, creating challenging and creative hardcore punk. With “I Want to be in Control” takes an approach that is both artsy and angular to the ever present status-quo hardcore. Black Button displays a spectrum of speed inducing hardcore to mid-tempo dirges that have a no wave/noise rock flair. Hailing from Richmond Virginia and sharing members with Slump and Teenage Cenobite, Black Button is on their way to being the cities hottest new item. Be sure to catch them whenever shows happen again.
