(Debut Release)
VIOLENT BY CHOICE
The second you listen to this recording, You can tell they mean what they say!!! New Jersey is in the fucking house! Six songs of Jersey hardstyle hardcore mixed with BioHazard-ish chants and gangsta style vocals. The look? Legitimate tough guys whose music reflect their lifestyles. Very intense and keeps getting better with every listen.
2nd Release
SLAP OF REALITY
A Six Song Release. Boy does it stay in the heavy end pounce on each other beats. It is really some stomping music. Play this Sucker loud and you'll get the full effect. This could be a case of the right sound at the right time..Slower grinding core riffs from a nailgun....

Brian Worland on vocals, Emits rap lyrics with a smooth and fluid grace, quickly shifting into the deep guttural sounds of discontent
John (a.k.a E) on played bass with the band until his utimely demise in 2004 was absolute energy in motion "a lightning bolt unleashed on stage" Jeff Anthony
In 2005 Greg James (Formerly of Antitrust / Barrage /Reverse Peristalisis) Took the reigns as bassist and re-completed an already intense lineup. "Greg brings a lot ot the table for us. It was a tough decision to even carry on after the loss of John. His intense talent and experience is an absolute plus to GUTWRENCH as a whole" Jeff Anthony
Jeff Anthony on guitar flows out leads and rhythms with such total concentration that music and musician are fused into one fine tuned instrument...
