Ballkick is a remarkable band that was originally formed in 2017 and underwent a significant transformation during the pandemic lockdown. This period of global crisis served as a catalyst for the band’s evolution, allowing them to redefine their sound and message. Drawing inspiration from renowned bands like Kickback, 25 ta Life, and Madball, Ballkick’s sound is deeply rooted in the hardcore genre. Their music would not have felt out of place at a beatdown-friendly VFW Hall show in the '90s, a testament to their authentic and raw sound. The band’s commitment to their craft led them to partner with Upstate Records, known for working with bands like Freya and Bovice. This collaboration marked a significant milestone in Ballkick’s journey. In pursuit of perfecting their sound, Ballkick traveled to Katowice, Poland, to record their debut EP, History Makers, at Nest Studio. Working with engineer Tom Bishop, they meticulously crafted each track to reflect their unique style and message. One of the standout tracks from their EP is “Cancel Cop Culture”. This song serves as an excellent introduction to Ballkick’s sound and ethos. It encapsulates the band’s energy and gives listeners a taste of what to expect from their forthcoming EP. Ballkick is more than just a band; they are History Makers in their own right. Their music reflects their journey, influences, and the times they were formed in. As they continue to make music, they carry with them the spirit of the hardcore scenes from which they originated.
