5 Balls of Power

5 Balls of Power Live cassette

Hot upbeat melodic punk from this New England outfit. Live, but the good production brings out the power. Good up-and-coming band.

5 Balls of Power Operations in Musical Warfare cassette

A 28-song release displaying the BALLS’ hard-hitting but almost pop hardcore sound. There’s a lot of attention on melody, vocals, and back-up singing, as well as many changes within songs. This can be annoying, but their overall power and unrelenting energy carries it off. Pro job, fine lyrics too.
