Photo by Will LevyBite The Hand is the next band primed to make waves out of the Bay Area’s burgeoning hardcore scene. Formed in 2022, the five-piece released their EP, Down Comes the Bay, in October of that year, introducing a gripping, sociopolitical charged sound. On their new EP, Brutal By Design, out today on Big Bite Records, Bite The Hand create a thrashy frenzy across five tracks.
Mixed by Andy Nelson at Bricktop Recording and mastered by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege, Brutal By Design has a sonic drive that draws from the bounce of classic California hardcore bands and infuses a sharp, tough, full sound. Lyrically, the songs range from addressing class struggle and racial inequality to looking back with regret and acceptance of self. Bite The Hand stems from the mind of guitarist Timmy Lodhi, who also lead on production and direction for the music videos accompanying singles “Day Of Pain” and “Brutal By Design.” The EP is just as furious as the band’s live show, and fans on the West Cost can catch them alongside Paint It Black, Sabertooth Zombie, Mask, and more on a string of upcoming shows, full dates below.
With Brutal By Design, Bite The Hand have created an urgent, honest, riff-filled EP that is meant to rile you up and leave you wanting more. The EP is available on cassette HERE and digitally HERE.
