Shortsight
Shortsight are one of the originators of the metallic Hardcore sound. And one of the 8000 Crew pioneers from back in 1992. Vocals for their demo were done by Hans and later Saskia, his sister took over. Most recordings were with her and she was a pioneer and a respected woman within the scene. They have a atmospheric sound that is unique. Their drummer went on to form Regression. And they were a huge inspiration for other bands to follow, like evidently Lifecycle.
