Album Notes & Community Reviews

The highly anticipated debut album from the Philadelphia hardcore quintet is an absolutely unrelenting, punishingly heavy fusion of brutal death metal and 90s beatdown hardcore. The incredibly dense record revolves almost entirely around impossibly slow, chugging breakdowns and frontman Aaron Heard's incredibly ferocious, terrifyingly deep vocal roars. It cemented the band as absolute titans within the modern metallic hardcore revival.
