"The first time I met Meet The Storm was during a gig we played together in a town called Spijkenisse. Meet The Storm played and I never heard anyone scream "TEXMEX!!!" as loud as Matt did that night.
And now I find that they're still "texmex-ing" their way through the hardcore scene! Speaking With Forked Tongues for example, a mid-tempo song which ploughs on like a pack of crazed elephants on a stampede, trumpetting through the city.
'Cause that's what this is, a Southern-Core wake-up call!"
