Album Notes & Community Reviews

Splitknuckle's 'Breathing Through The Wound' merges the visceral force of metallic hardcore with distinct death metal elements, built upon a foundation of downtuned, complex guitar riffs and ferocious vocals. The album's production balances this raw aggression with a polished clarity, allowing for dynamic shifts between blistering brutality and more melodic, atmospheric passages. Lyrically, it is a cathartic exploration of anger, betrayal, and inner turmoil, presenting a sound that is both punishing and emotionally resonant.
