Comeback Kid — Through The Noise

in
By Keith Carman (CHARTattack) October 14, 2008 1:34 pm
It seems somewhat premature for a young band like Winnipeg's Comeback Kid to release a retrospective documentary so early in their career. They're barely passed their half-decade anniversary, so there isn't that much to tell other than surviving a few member changes. But, with the attention to detail and formidable quality of Through The Noise,...

Comeback Kid — Broadcasting...

in
By Shehzaad Jiwani (CHARTattack) February 20, 2007 11:46 am
It's no secret that Canada is home to some of the best names in punk music, and Winnipeg's Comeback Kid are looking to carry the torch (and shove it through your skull) with their third effort. The album is their first without vocalist Scott Wade, but Andrew Neufeld does an admirable job taking his place. Neufeld's higher, less-throaty...

Comeback Kid — Wake The Dead

in
By Steve English (CHARTattack) February 22, 2005 2:55 pm
This Winnipeg quartet’s punishing old school metalcore onslaught is the sort of rough ‘n’ tumble stuff punks used to play before they launched their own clothing lines and dated Hilary Duff. Drummer Kyle Profeta smashes his kit with enough kinetic force to separate it into atomic particles while singer Scott Wade barks anti-everything mumbo-jumbo...

Comeback Kid: Next Hardcore Band To Hit The Big Time?

I arrived at The Mod Club just after Hamilton, Ont.'s Counterparts had finished their set. Boston, Mass.' The Carrier were up next and played a pretty great set with vocalist Anthony Traniello bounding about on stage. The band don't do anything particularly groundbreaking, and their music is kind of akin to both Most Precious Blood and Terror. But...

The latest Comeback Kid clip finds the Winnipeg hardcore band performing while rats, snakes and other creepy-crawly things slither and scurry around. Something's also happening to someone's tongue; they're either getting it pierced or...

Seeing Comeback Kid live is an intense experience. Sure, it's easy to say that about any hardcore band, but the band have a type of energy that not every act in their genre has, and most of it is because of Andrew Neufeld's dynamic stage presence.Maybe you can get an idea of that in Comeback Kid's new clip for Symptoms + Cures' "G.M.

Just four years ago, Comeback Kid were forced to re-evaluate the band's existence when vocalist Scott Wade left the band due to stress. In a surprising move, guitarist Andrew Neufeld stepped in to fill his place. The departure of a lead singer can often kill or cripple a band, and it's also extremely difficult for another member of that...
