Last year, the great Baltimore post-hardcore band Truth Cult announced their breakup and played their final show. Almost immediately afterward, Truth Cult’s electric frontman Parris Roberts launched his new band No Idols. The No Idols demo came out about a week after the last Truth Cult show, and it sounds absolutely nothing like Truth Cult. The new band’s lineup also includes members of groups like Bib and Angel Du$t, and they make unhinged, passionate ’80s-style hardcore. They play fast and intense, with a ton of attitude, and they sound like a runaway train that keeps speeding up but never quite derails.
