Kidnapped is a four piece band from CT who formed in early 2017, from the looks of things.  Kidnapped play a killer style of music that incorporates elements of hardcore, punk, grindcore, and powerviolence within their sound.  Musically, Kidnapped can be loosely compared to bands such as Fluoride, Iron Lung, Dropdead, Water Torture, and other like-minded bands.  Since forming in 2017, Kidnapped have released a self-titled eight song demo in April of 2017, a self-titled fourteen song EP in September of 2017,  an eight song cassette titled Crunch in December of 2017, an eight track EP titled Hungry in April of 2018, a ten song EP titled Connecticut Powerviolence in January of 2019, a 48 song LP titled Collected Works (2017-2019) in July of 2019, a three song fall tour promo EP in October of 2019, and a self-titled seven song demo EP in January of 2020.  Nowhere Is Sterile is the band's latest EP, which was released via Larry Records on September 5th, 2021.  On Nowhere Is Sterile, Kidnapped offer up ten tracks of vicious and scathing hardcore, punk, grindcore, and powerviolence.  Overall, Nowhere Is Sterile makes for an awesome listen and definitely should not be missed.  Highly recommended!  Enjoy!
