New from Earache. Stoked to finally have those Carcass EPs

There's a lot of "sounds like"'s happening here, but basically it reminds me of Yage meets early Hopesfall/Poison The Well. I've been obsessing over these songs for the last 12 hours. Figured I'd share some new music that some of you might also dig

Also, they were fucking incredible. Don’t miss them if they are coming anywhere near you. They are playing two sets and I was hypnotized the entire time.

The setlists I've seen looked NUTS. At first I was a little bummed I bought a ticket to see them in NYC once the Numero Twenty lineup got announced, but now I'm even more amped because it'll be a standing-room venue that's significantly smaller.

I'm bummed, I've been slacking on buying the No Energy and Empire boxsets (I have the first two), and they've gone up so much in price on Discogs. Really hoping they get repressed.

I love this album…but $60 shipped for an album…I gotta draw the line somewhere.

Yeah, I'm not liking the price tag on this one. It was $50 shipped for me and that was a tough call

Anyone else going to either Codeine show this Friday/Saturday in NYC

and/or

Numero Twenty?

They're a metal band, but also this album is SUPER droney so I'd rather make a separate post in case anyone overlooks those catch-all threads.

As I Lay Dying dweebs come to mind. 

I mean, you're not wrong. It's probably the same people that vouch for Sweet Pete even after dating multiple 17 year olds. One thing I've learned is that most people that are "backed hard" aren't generally "good dudes"

Really hoping The Suicide File plays another one-off reunion show at a smaller venue. Add MLIW and heck, even tack on The Hope Con.

Who are we talking about here? Bane

Not trying to virtue signal or knocking people for liking/listening to them. They were THE band for me in high school. It was such a fucking bummer to find this out when it happened.

I’ll never understand how they still got a scene pass after the singer of that band got an A&B charge for hitting his girlfriend.  

Up next, following in KISS' footsteps with kitsch;

TOOL TOOLBOX!

Right?!?!? 

Can you add a single polybag to the order? The option was there for the standard LP version 

BUY & LISTEN HERE


Alright, so this is a double post (see hardcore/punk PO thread), but I'm reeling with how good this album is and I feel it deserves it's own thread. It reminds me of Portraits Of Past 90's screamy hardcore if they played in the style of Drive Like Jehu. It's barely February and this will definitely be one of my favorite records to come out this year.

The new King Slender album is so fucking incredible. It sounds like Portraits Of Past meets Drive Like Jehu and features members of Five Stars For Failure, The Minor Times, and a few others

I just got the bone w/red and hit pay before seeing the deluxe. Oh well, I can live.

Maybe it’s a Quicksand live record. The background photo looks to be a crowd & mic stand. 

It's not a live album

I've been bragging to my wife lately every time I've had one of those days - today there will be no such bragging, but good on you!

I feel like I always jinx myself and two days after bragging there’s always 2-3 POs at once where I lose control 😂

Hopefully Panopticon gets RE-repressed because I totally missed out on that too.

If anyone finds a U.S. label / distribution site carrying the new BRUIT ≤ EP let me know! A Thousand Arms isn’t carrying it yet

2018 pressing of Mosquito Control on black is now up as well for $25 shipped. Curious to see what else pops up

I feel like Jeniferever is definitely more on the post-rock side of things but to be totally honest, I haven’t revisited them in a minute.

I haven’t tried the new Deathcrash single yet, but was just listening to their EP last night.  Their 2022 record was great as well.  I don’t think either had programmed drums, though.

The new single reminded me of Holy Fawn if HF was a slowcore band. I’m really digging it. I might wait until some US distribution is available. (The band said there would be copies available via Forced Exposure in the US)

if anyone is still looking for a copy of Oceanic (gold w/ red splatter), MerchTable has then for $38 shipped in the US

I’m just going to bite my tongue before I start talking about how much I hate the wax mage culture
