Good things come to those who wait. SPEAK 714, for example, has been a long time coming. Vocalist Dan O'Mahony (Ex - No For An Answer, 411) and guitarist Joe D. Foster (Ignite, Ex - Unity) have been toying with the concept of joining forces in a long term band since 1985. A good idea whose time has finally come.
When O'Mahony finally returned to his home of Orange County after five years away, it was only a matter of time. The two quickly hooked up with the formidable rhythm section of Doug McKinnon (ex-Slapshot) and Samuel Marrs (ex-Straight Faced) and began writing what would soon become Speak 714's "Knee Deep In Guilt" LP & CD for Revelation Records.
"Knee Deep In Guilt" represents a thorough redefining of original and real Orange County hardcore. This journeyman foursome continue to combine the speed and intensity of their aforementioned bands with a lyrical perspective that only a decade and a half's worth of experience can provide. Feel the aggression, live the words, "Knee Deep In Guilt" is the way hardcore was always meant to be.
