Handsome - Handsome

Genre: Post-Hardcore/Metal
FFO: Quicksand, Shift, Cave In, Helmet

Handsome was a band from New York that was active from 2006 until 2008. They were a supergroup of sorts, consisting of members of Quicksand, Helmet, Cro-Mags and Murphy's Law. This was their only release. There are tons of riffs that sound like they could be in Helmet songs, but there's a balance between the metal riffs and the more melodic vocals, and it creates a really unique and great sound. This is one of my favorite albums to come out in the 90's. If you like Quicksand, you'll appreciate this band.
