********"Walken.Yeah,like Christopher Walken. San Francisco is long known for it's spastic,experimental,genre bending cross-pollination of styles and scenes be it metal,punk,crust,post-rock,alternative or any bastardization of 'em all, and Walken proudly sees the challenge and pisses in its face. Raging with raspy but rockin' post-hardcore, Walken take hints from psychotics like Black Flag, B'last and pre-Melvins abusers Clown Alley and roll heads with just as many skatepunk skankin' circle pits and humanitarian anthems as they add a progressive-punk edge to the scathing mess of progressively-thinking sub-everything-core.To not much suprise two members of Grayceon inhabit Walken's ranks.Ugly,twitchy...catchy." February issue of Metal Maniacs 2008"Walken raise their fists at the crossroads of hardcore punk and metal on this their debut -- a brief, but promising ep that the band self released on cd-r. With bass strings so loosely strung that you can hear 'em clatter and manly screamo vocals, the band's raw thrashing is heavily indebted to very early Bay Area metal bands such as Metallica, Exodus and Testament, but with unexpected bluesiness in the riff department. Furious, chunky and part of the latest virulent strains of Bay Area thrash" -Aquarius Records 1/21/07 e.p.
