Converge

2023 press. LTD Cloudy Clear & Black Galaxy Vinyl.
This is just pure violence. No let up, no breathing room, just riff after riff flying at your head. Feels tighter and more direct than some of their other stuff as well, like they’ve trimmed all the excess and left only the damage. Drums are ridiculous, guitars sound like they’re tearing, and Jacob Bannon is fully unhinged on it. Not an easy listen, not meant to be. You either love this or you run a mile. Still absolutely rips. FFO: Botch, Dillinger Escape Plan, early Trap Them, chaotic hardcore, metalcore at its most savage, things that make your jaw clench
