“Bully” is a new track by Hearing Tests.
Hearing Tests are a Hardcore band from London, sonically direct, taking influence from all over the hardcore spectrum, fast pummelling riffs, huge sing along political lyrics, tackling issues such as the rise of the far right, consumerism and inequality with more personal stories.
Drawing influence from legends like Minor Threat, NoMeansNo, and Black Flag, the band delivers blistering riffs, sing-along hooks, and a vocal delivery that teeters on the edge of unhinged. Their sound is fast, raw, and unapologetically direct – built for sweaty basements and shouted choruses. Lyrically, they pull no punches, taking aim at consumer culture, far-right politics, and systemic inequality with a clarity and fury that leaves no room for ambiguity.
Politically charged and sonically relentless, Hearing Tests aren’t just playing punk – they’re living it.
