Formed in 2015, Chicago hardcore band Kharma pack a pummeling, rhythmic style made to get you moving. Today, the band announces their fourth release, A World Of Our Own, that is due out on April 12th via Flatspot Records. Working with Jon Markson at The Animal Farm, the band set out to record their most personal and colossal material yet, and that translates on their new single, Clip Your Wings. The track packs an intense sonic execution with pulverizing riffs, menacing drums and a relentless vocal delivery. The video for the song, directed by Derek Rathbun, plays out as a short horror film between an epic performance from the band.

“The overall theme of this record sort of stems from the title track. In every song I dive into a lot of issues whether it be personal or issues with the world at large. The title track is a love letter to Chicago Hardcore but more broadly to hardcore itself. The ‘real world’ is full of so much pain and hate that we can’t control but within the hardcore community we can. We can use this outlet to improve ourselves, each other, and eventually the world around us. So that’s where ‘A World Of Our Own’ came from. The idea that hardcore is a little world that we can escape to while building ourselves up to live in a world where we can thrive even through the struggles of everyday real life.” (Vocalist Jordan Moten)
