Why should major label bands be the only ones who get love? Unsigned & Streamed is a column where we stream a song from an unsigned band we at Metal Insider really dig.
This week, we’re proud to be showcasing Zombies And Diamonds from La Vega Baja (Alicante, Southeast Spain). The group started off as a power trio in mid-2008 following guitarist Miguel Hernandez and drummer Gustavo Rodriguez’s time in the hardcore/punk outfit The Assbreakers. After releasing their first three track demo, Zombies And Diamonds made a name for themselves live, having shared the stage with bands like The Cynics and The King Brothers. And by 2009, the band finalized their lineup with the addition of frontman Adrian Filiu. The following year, Zombies And Diamonds released their full length debut Walk With Me! Zombies And Diamonds’ blend of hardcore and Southern grit reminds us of bands like Every Time I Die and Coliseum. So without further ado, listen to the sing “Ten Years” in the stream below.
