Blood Memory is officially out now! Available on all streaming platforms and a limited amount of vinyl still available from WAR Records.
Unreal City is a hardcore band that was forged in the cold, gray weight of Pittsburgh, a place whose bleak industrial past still shapes the sound and spirit of everything they create. Featuring members of Integrity and Eternal Sleep, the band released their debut LP, Cruelty of Heaven, in 2020 on Closed Casket Activities before vocalist Joseph Sanderson departed for Southeast Asia, where he became a three-time Muay Thai champion.
Recorded with the late Bill Korecky at the legendary Mars Recording Studio and paired with artwork by the late Stephen Kasner, Unreal City’s new EP, Blood Memory, marks the band’s full return. Taking inspiration from Cleveland’s infamous “Holy Terror” sound, Blood Memory combines the influences of Integrity and Ringworm and pummels you like a steamroller - imagine Slayer played at half speed with a NYHC swag.
