It's a lot like Botch, but grimmer and heavier, less whimsical - all of which is fine with me. Usually I'm not a fan of "sounds like" deals, but (a) this is very, very well done, and (b) I have sorely been missing the punishing angular mathcore that set the turn of the millennium alight. The production here is fantastic, with modern power, but not so compressed that it sands off the oh-so-vital edges. fyeahmetal

Dead Cross, Retox, and Qui members dish out subversive hardcore with an indignant smirk; come for the riffs, stay for the synth experiments. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 31, 2024
