Don’t let the Cascadian cover art fool you, this is hardcore/punk infused death metal to fucking die for. Wonder if we’ll ever hear more from these guys? Thanks to Lloyde Olonko for unearthing this gem from the ancient past (2016) ;-) MJ
Blackened hardcore with the sheer heady power of stadium crust and the glacial melodies of second-wave black metal. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 10, 2023
Stunning album that will leave you in the fetal position afterwards. Centuries run effortlessly over the tightrope between metal and hardcore. I also love the give no absolute fucks attitude across these tracks. Power move: After the unbelievably hard opener, the band starts the 2nd track with a minute and half acoustic interlude before resuming the onslaught out of nowhere. That's just some straight up confidence that is well-earned with this release. Do yourself some good and check this out. bcb723
