All Bets Off! Damn, every time I see these guys play they get better and better, and each time I see them I think that their performance can't be topped, then I'll see them again and they're better than before.
Not many bands can do that. One thing that I really like about All Bets Off, is that they have a pretty original sound. They started out playing rather straight forward hardcore but have progressed and built upon their original sound. They now combine elements of metal, screamocore, and even a bit of grindcore, as well as adding more melodic parts. One thing I've noticed about their shows is they atract a much more diverse crowd then most hardcore bands do. People into real melodic stuff like them as well as people who are more into heavier bands. If you crossed Madball, Converge, E-Town Concrete, and the Melvins, you might get something similar to All Bets Off.
