THE BLACKOUT ARGUMENT have become widely known as one the hardest working and fastest growing artists of the European hardcore scene. Short and sweet: In their three years of existence, this 5-piece from Munich has created an awe-inspiring legacy of phenomenal releases, constant touring, loyal fans all over the world and perpetual press attention! Fronted by vocalist Raphael Schmid, their tightened new line up was put to the final test in the studio and passed it with flying colours! “Remedies” is THE BLACKOUT ARGUMENT’s highly determined sophomore full length for LIFEFORCE RECORDS and easily one of the most intelligent, instigating and hard-hitting releases to conquer the streets in 2009. THE BLACKOUT ARGUMENT comfortably joins together heavy new school/mosh-type moments, modern rock-style bounce and melody-infused flavour. The result is an assault of impulsive melodic hardcore anthems about the emotional facets of life. THE BLACKOUT ARGUMENT have created a new remedy that will fill your life with hope, passion and fervour. The thoughtful concept that underlies “Remedies” is based on the curative effect of Bach Flowers. Just like these homeopathic remedies offer an answer to various emotional prisons, the tracks on THE BLACKOUT ARGUMENT’s album reflect the whole spectrum of human emotion. These songs and lyrics are to heal the receiver’s injured hearts and souls and offer new strength and motive force to carry forward this struggle called life.
