Hand To Hand from Orlando Florida returns after their successful debut album “A perfect Way To Say Goodbye” witch got them nominated for “bands to watch”. This time, they bring their digital only EP called “Breaking The surface”.
The album brings a blend of hardcore & old school metal combined with rock and emo. They’ve putted a lot of effort in this one and it shows off.
At first it may sound a bit lame but later on, the album becomes stronger and makes your body move.
The vocals sound strong and true (thx to vocalists Rob Kellom & Arturo Matamoros), but unfortunately the guitars don’t come out the way they should.
Still, I’m very eager to hear their new cd that hits the stores in early 2009.

82/100
