About Me


Delivering a pummeling hybrid of hardcore and metal that demands the attention of the most casual metal aficionado, Protest Urban adeptly merge contrasting facets of heavy metal and hardcore in order to form an abrasive style of metal that is as original as it is intense. Formed in September of 2003, the group has been hard at work creating material since its inception. Hailing from the Romanian city of Constanta, just off the coast of the Black Sea, Protest Urban strives to prove to the music masses that Romania has substantive and aggressive music up for the offering. With one listen, you'll surely agree that this band is one of the most powerful and substantial forces lurking in underground music today.
Influenced by a diverse range of artists from Zao to Metallica, Protest Urban craft biting, earthshaking compositions compounded by an uncanny knack for dynamics. Their textured vocal juxtapositions are the perfect compliment to the band's uncompromising amalgam of hardcore and heavy metal without sounding identical to so many of their peers jumping on the metalcore bandwagon. The group has put forth their high energy musical onslaught in support of established acts such as Undying (US), Napalm Death (UK), Born From Pain (Holland), Sunrise (Poland) & Curse Of Instinct (Slovenia).
With upcoming performances on the slate in the group's native Constanta and beyond, Protest Urban is intent on taking their ground shaking live performance to cities throughout Europe proving to the metal masses that Romania is breeding some serious hardcore contenders. Protest Urban has begun a trail of sonic destruction that leaves the competition cowering in its wake.

Sounds Like: "While death and thrash influences infest this album, this is more of a throwback to the early metalcore days when Trustkill, Ferret, Lifeforce and other early labels of the genre actually all had at least half of a rooster I could enjoy (Disembodied, Harvest, Framework, early Hatebreed). Blend that chunky e-chord moshability and trigger-happy breakdown syndrome with modernized melodic thrash à la Deadsoil and Lilitu and you have this summarized!" - METAL MANIACS
