Album Review: Ganbaru - Declaration

Ganbaru's Declaration is no easy listen - which is great for the hardcore punk band they are.

Powerful choruses found in Bleeding Hearts and the album's title track welcomes the listener to join in and scream their lungs out. Be The Change puts a twist on the classic punk song style, using elements of old-school punk bass and drums infused with hardcore toned guitar and vocals. More melodic songs like Onward / Upward and Determination Calls, really shows that Ganbaru are strong players in the hardcore scene. Declaration will make you find the nearest crowd and start a mosh pit.
