New jerseys been known to break some of todays biggest emo rock bands such as brand new, saves the day, and sense's fail, but its presence in hardcore metal has been mear to none. then came along augment. now defucnt and the band being on seperate path and bands. before there break up they released a stellar 5 track ep new beginings. my looking at the bands lyrics on sheet you could mistake them for your average every day jersey emo band. with lyrical content about heartbreak (spin kick the curb) (lock jaw) (helds hold high) you'd think they fit perfectly with the scene. but unlike the emo pussy's with there whiney suck ass vocals that should be autoned with high pitch squeled screams and soft guitar riffs, augment had brutal vocals that match the brutal heartbreak and feelings delivered in the music, heavy guitar riffs that would get your angered blood boiling. def a hardcore sound perfectly fittign for the angered feelings easily expressed in there music. the albums highlights though are not johhny brutals lyrics of his pain but guitarist chris guaraca's hard hitting guitar riffs. lock jaw is the perfect example of this 20 year old scotch palin natives abilities. if i was a talent scount id deffintly be in line on picking up this talented guatarist. the alum is more then just a ode to heartbreat though unlike the emo trash jersey has unleashed they actually know howto show love back to the state that showed there band love on the jersey anthem 908. overall this ep was hsowing high hopes for there 2ndrelease before the break-up a true showing that jersey has more than emo bullshit.
overall 8 out of 10
