INTERVIEW WITH MITCH OF DISARMED

Words on the end of Aggrieved, first show and musical influences from Mitch of new NEHC outfit DISARMED. 

Youve already dropped a single what have you got in store for the EP?

We've got another single dropping in early Jan and the full EP dropping before the rhapsody all dayer, got some new shit that we're working on too so hopefully that won't be too long until it's out either
Disarmed even though based further north feels like a TSHC band to me, where do you sit on that?
I feel like by the end of Aggrieved it was less of a TSHC band since only Jack lives in Middlesbrough, but I feel like even with the vibe of Disarmed that TSHC is still a massive part of it
Disarmed feels like the next evolution of Aggrieved , what style changes/influences have you drawn on for the new project?
Everyone's brought loads of different ideas to the songs with Disarmed which is sick. Petes big inspired by Whispers and shit on this EP, Leeroy has brought loads of Killswitch Engage style shit, I've ripped off that riff from Thank You For The Venom as much as I can. I think it's still fairly obvious that we're all massively into thrash and death metal but it's a really nice change from what we're all used to.
What are your experiences of the first show with Jawless / Clobber at etch?
That show fucking banged. I remember the first Aggrieved set being weird and a bit awkward but this one went really well. Etch is also one of the sickest venues I've seen. The whole lineup absolutely banged for that show too.
3 bands UKHC heads should check out in 2026?
Actin Up, Despondent, Human Deceit. Honourable mentions to Break Them and Dispute
