Interview: Haste interview by bushman There are many bands doing the “little bit of this, little bit of that” genre hopping approach. The formula of late sounds like an out-dated Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup commercial… “You’ve got hardcore in my emo… Well, you got your emo in my hardcore”. And by formula, I mean, bands that can take two distinct genres and perform either at the flick of a switch. Often toggling between the two in the same song. Admirable enough, but it’s the bands that meld genres together to give themselves some personality that deserve the higher praise and your oh-so-valuable listening time. Haste is a proficient member of the latter category, folding hardcore, emo and indie-rock into seamless forays of aggression within melody.
