End It delivers a powerhouse of hardcore energy that perfectly balances groove, aggression, and impressive musicianship. From the very first track, the album carves out a distinctive vibe with deep, groovy basslines combined with tight, punchy drums that propel each song forward with unstoppable momentum. The title track immediately sets the tone with killer grooves and simple yet catchy call-outs, inviting listeners to dive headfirst into the raw, unfiltered energy that runs through the entire record.

Throughout the album, End It keeps the momentum dynamic and unpredictable. Tracks like "Pale Horse" and "Exploiter (SYBAU)" showcase the band’s ability to pack intense bursts of energy into compact, high-impact songs, mixing rapid-fire drumming, dynamic riffing, and vocally charged performances that create a sense of urgency while still leaving room for memorable hooks that linger. Conversely, songs like "Billion Dollar Question" and "Cloutbusting" slow things down, letting heavy grooves and menacing riffs take center stage, proving that End It’s mastery of restraint can be just as powerful as their fast-paced assaults.

The band’s technical prowess shines through in tracks like "Life Sublime" and "Optical Delusions," where dissonant riffs, slick guitar solos, and thrashy punk-inspired rhythms add rich layers and texture without ever feeling forced or gimmicky. Even on tracks that flirt with lighter or more experimental styles, such as "Could You Love Me?," End It demonstrates versatility by blending pop-punk energy, reggae-infused riffs, and whimsical melodies into a cohesive whole that never loses its hardcore edge.

Vocally, the performances are consistently dynamic, ranging from the raw, fiery intensity of songs like "Exploiter" and "Disdain (U Mad)" to the brash, almost sing-along style of "Could You Love Me?." The vocals are expertly balanced in the mix and supported by gritty backing vocals that add depth and extra punch.

The rhythm section is a standout element, with thick, bouncy basslines locking in tightly with the drums to create grooves that are both heavy and irresistibly danceable. Guitar riffs, whether deep and menacing or sharp and catchy, anchor the album’s sonic identity with precision and flair.

Lyrically, "Wrong Side of Heaven" explores themes of struggle, frustration, and resilience. Songs like "Anti-Colonial" deliver deep, reflective messages on violence and overcoming adversity, while "Empire’s Demise" channels raw, cathartic power. Even shorter tracks, such as "Future Without a Past," pack intense energy and impactful messages, demonstrating the band’s skillful command of pacing and arrangement.

The production throughout the album is crisp and polished, allowing each instrument to breathe while preserving the visceral energy that defines hardcore music. "Wrong Side of Heaven" is an album designed to move you—whether you're two-stepping in a pit or nodding along to the groove—and rewards repeated listens with its layered riffs, tight rhythms, and dynamic vocal performances.

In sum, End It has crafted a record that is as heavy as it is infectious, skillfully blending hardcore, punk, and subtle experimental flourishes into a cohesive, high-energy journey. "Wrong Side of Heaven" isn’t just an album; it’s a bold statement—a fierce, groovy, and undeniably fun ride from start to finish.
