"The long awaited debut EP from Philly's best post hardcore act. Aside from 2 tracks we're familiar with, we have 3 more, each with that polish and creativity you expect from them (Body Double has to be one of my new favorites). I might not be the biggest audiophile, but the mixing here is on point, helping bring that 2000s angst full circle."

1) I Forgot to Water My Plants and They Faked Their Own Death (2020)
2) Trophy Kill (2021)
3) X 15087 (Single) (2022)

"I mean this sincerely, the best band to come from the dead corpse of this style of post hardcore in the past 2 years. When listening to old pxc stuff circa '03-'09 I'm always thinking 'they don't make em like this anymore'. It's a somber reality, but I believe if you look hard enough you can find people who feel the same way and have the inventiveness to rekindle pxc's flames. Each track holds the same level of potency, but is completely unique from each other. I've been patiently anticipating every bit of news ever since their very debut. Being that their most recent single just dropped today, a 'singles' post  and a proper review would be appropriate."
