Sibling Rivalry

Whatkind! Durban Stone Style

About Me

The fastest, slowest, heaviest, most skanking, Ska/Core Punk you will ever hear (in Durban). For somewhere around 8 long and tiresome years, Sibling Rivalry have been breaking strings, busting knees, gaining sweat, blood and tears, the rivalry is still maintaining and going strong. With a new album "contorted Izingoma". Which spans tha last four years of the bands song writing ability. The album is off beat and agressive and not that catchy, although when the hook does eventually drop, the crowd swirls and doesn't know what the fuck is going down. "Is this Ska is it Hardcore, is it metal" we don't know or care but it's something, something different well atleast these four stoned/drunk punks from Durban think so, if you don't they don't really mind. As long as there is some stage in this small city that can accomadate them they will continue to accomadate, the Punks/drunks/rude boys/rastas and general misfits in their radius, so at least they have a place to go. They are also scene builders and have managed to turn a shrinking Durban punk/alt/hardcore scene into a force to reckoned with. With their regular parties, and live shows around this beatiful stoned city. So the land of DP beware, sibling want to make your ears bleed and won't stop untill they see some blood. Peace out, much love.
