Bent Life are relative Midwest Blood veterans, having churned out brute-force hardcore since 2010. They’ve cut their teeth sharing the stage with Harm’s Way, Comeback Kid, Expire and countless others, and have played at Rain Fest, Midwest Blood Fest, Concrete Fest and more. Their debut album Never Asked For Heaven which was recorded with Terror’s Nick Jett, showcases the band evolving into an aggressive powerhouse with clarity and precision, capable of thudding riffs and surprisingly memorable, gutting hooks. Inspired by Pantera’s harsh groove and Hatebreed’s tightly performed bulldoze, Bent Life have emerged from a long writing process revitalized and better than ever.
