It's rare and refreshing to see a band as consistent as Pennsylvania's hardcore outfit, War of Ages. Since 2003, they've been writing in-your-face metal, with even more upfront lyrics. What's even more impressive is seeing them subtly grow in every facet throughout the years, whether it be in technical aptitude, or lyrical depth. When JFH recently honored the 25th anniversary of Facedown Records, (which you can read here), War of Ages was the name consistently mentioned by all participants. And for good reason, as they are almost certainly the most notable band in the record label's history. That's high praise for a rather nuts and bolts band. But there's a lot to be said for consistency, especially in the constantly turning over world of music. With War of Ages, you know what you're gonna get, and there's a certain comfort to that, especially when the products keep coming in better than the last. Though they never disappoint, the last few albums, Void, and most recently, 2019's Rhema EP, have shown the band ever increasing in songwriting depth.
