Victory Records has issued that the Canadian hardcore prodigies COUNTERPARTS have been summoned to unleash their brand of raw, hard hitting beats on the Chicagoland area. The five-piece will be stopping by Chicago’s own AudiotreeTV for a much-anticipated performance and interview beginning at 2 pm (CST) on Friday, January 4th. Watch their LIVE performance here. The masters of riffs and grit will be taking over Penny Road Pub later that night in Barrington, IL and they promise to take no prisoners.
Supporting their 2011 release The Current Will Carry Us, COUNTERPARTS has been busy touring North America, Europe and the UK delivering honest hardcore, brimming with powerhouse vocals and impressive song structure. Critically acclaimed, their sophomore album demonstrates musicianship beyond their years, producing heavy hardcore, balanced perfectly by moments of selective melody. Don’t miss your opportunity to witness one of Ontario’s hardest working hardcore bands as they take Chicago by storm with no mercy before they head back to the UK beginning February 7th, 2013 touring alongside YOUR DEMISE and FACT. Watch their new music video “The Disconnect” below.
