Westfield Massacre (a.k.a. Divine Heresy 2.0) Release New Song + Live Dates

To date, I have not been very kind to Westfield Massacre, the new band featuring former Divine Heresy members Tommy Vext (vox) and Tim Yeung (drums) a Bill Hudson (guitars) from Jon Oliva’s Pain. So you should take me seriously when I admit that, hey, their new song, “Respect Resistance,” is actually really good! The band is still way behind on current trends — they sound like they’d be on the Ozzfest second stage circa 2004/5 — but whatever: the song is catchy as fuck! If they had been on the Ozzfest second stage circa 2004/5, I’m sure they would have been very well-received. There’s still no word on a release date for the band’s debut release, but if the rest of is it this good, I’ll be on board.

Crank this shit, yo:
