The Corleone Family are honored to present SHEER TERROR's debut UK performances. Established in 1984, SHEER TERROR has delivered some of the most punishing, and thematically heartbroken recordings ever known to hardcore. SHEER TERROR has created a career of inciting thugs to beat the hell out of each other to the back drop of love songs (that they most likely weep along to in private) made the way SHEER TERROR frontman Paul Bearer has seen fit. Before the malls, MTV, and the internet, stripped modern punk of it's heart and soul, hardcore was a fiercely wild and unpredictable form of truly underground music. Skinheads, punks, metalheads, drug addicts, straight-edgers and and other assorted freaks of nature would all gather at Sunday matinee shows at CBGB's and other hell-hole clubs around the world. Even in those days, Sheer Terror stood apart from the pack and offered up an unforgiving brutal hardcore sound that influenced bands such as HATEBREED, BLOOD FOR BLOOD, PANTERA and more. With live performances bordering on prison riots, Sheer Terror created a legacy in both music and uncompromising lyrical vision that very few bands could ever hope to match.
