Recorded and mixed by the band’s own Charlie Webb (guitar) and mastered by Alan Douches (Converge, Mastodon, The Dillinger Escape Plan), the one-minute and nine-second pandemonium of a track is “An autobiographical spurt of hardcore laying bare one of many perils of renting in the UK”, according to vocalist Dave…

KEN Mode Released New Single “The Shrike”
Released in September of last year, KEN mode’s eighth album, NULL, was inspired by the bleakest days of the COVID-19 pandemic and saw the band create some of the rawest, harshest material of its career.

Tunic Released Video For “Whispering”
A 2021 review from Decibel Magazine described Tunic’s sophomore effort, Quitter, as “hurtling forward, AmRep style.” Of that same album, Invisible Oranges stated, “everything sounds like it’s teetering on the edge of collapse.” Indeed, Quitter was a herky-jerky assault of pummeling drums, distorted bass, discordant guitar, and wild-eyed vocals that put the Winnipeg band on…

Cuffs – Factory Sessions
This band was not familiar to me, but for some reason, I had a strange feeling that I heard their music before. From what I learned about the band in these couple of days, Cuffs are English post-hardcore emanating from Bristol. Since their inception, Cuffs releases several recordings, consisting of singles and extended plays. The…

Alpha Hopper – Last Chance Power Drive LP (Swimming Faith / Radical Empathy)
This material is, what I truly believe, a second full-length by this Buffalo, NY-based quartet. Despite being fully aware of all the activities surrounding Swimming Faith, this recording somehow went under the radar, but luckily, now I have a chance to write a couple of lines about it. For those who missed my previous reviews…

In the…
