SHIZUNE / LYTIC - Split 7''

20 years ago a band called SAETIA established their own brandmark,
when it comes to emotional hardcore, within the diy scene.
The band split up and leaves a massive impact. Later a couple of the
involved individuals went on to play music in HOT CROSS or OFF
MINOR. Meanwhile these bands split up as well.
The year 2019 marks the fi rst release of LYTIC from New York, including
SAETIA and OFF MINOR founding member Jamie Behar. The
band was formed back in 2015. Finally they recorded a couple of
songs. For this LYTIC teamed up with Steve Roche, who also played
in SAETIA and OFF MINOR. The band lifts off where former bands of
Jamie ended. A brilliant guitarwriting with the typical melodic and
jazzy touches plus a signifi cant drumming are setting the foundation
of this two headed formation. What is making LYTIC to a new experience
is the use of a baritone guitar and the partways different
sounding vocals. All in all the band plays an interesting sound, that is
throwing you directly back to the late 90’s.
Their Split-Partner in crime are SHIZUNE from Lonigo/Italy. They are
around since 2011 and already put out a lot of releases, including
two albums and a bunch of singles and ep’s. The sound of SHIZUNE
is strongly infl uenced by their italian fellows RAEIN and LA QUIETE.
Catchy guitarrhythms , heartfelt vocals and forward driving drums, all
on a punky edge, are characteristic for what the band is doing.
