File Updates - Kyds Vs Columbus

Removed and reuploaded the "Kyds Vs Columbus (2002)" since it was listed wrong; in fact it was missing a track along with distinctions that they're EP versions of tracks that reappear in the 2004 split w/ Instil. Correct name of the release is "Even Jesus (2002)". Even got them in lossless, thanks to Trikresta on slsk for the files!

"Formed in 2019 out of the Philly scene, Sonagi delivers immense talent and creativity into the post rock-screamo niche. I was pleasantly surprised to see Ryann from Closer doing vox, which put this on my radar initially, for which I'm here to stay! This are just the debut singles (if not counting their split tracks), but a full release, Precedent, is set to release on the 22nd of this month; which I eagerly await for. Excellent, beautiful stuff here."

File Updates - In.Her.Head, Mozart Season

In.Her.Head's new single, "Daiquiri Zachary Has Never Lost A Battle", is out now! I also moved their debut single, "There Are No Doves In Outer Space" from that post to the corresponding EP now that it's out. 

That post has been updated here.

I did a little id3 organization for "Misc. Demos 2006-2008" w/ BeeDee's 96kbps original rips from their 2006 demo. 

On another note, we made the decision to remove _/10 ratings for reviews, as we feel music cannot be measured by such arbitrary values (at least we don't feel qualified for it). Just thought that was important to mention.

In.Her.Head - 2022 - Carved Wrists In Retrospect - (Reviewed)


Download (mp3) . Listen on YT . Bandcamp
1) That’s Not A Leg Brace, That’s Professor Snape
2) There Are No Doves In Outer Space
3) Hands Tied Hands Basket To Former Self

"Ever since this solo project (now duo) brought upon us the single There Are No Doves In Outer Space a year ago along with the announcement of an EP, I was hyped. This only was furthered by the release of more singles and demos... and here, the long anticipated release is finally out! This is one of the most expressive post hardcore albums I've ever heard (if not the most) from how personal and 'one-on-one' such composition brings across. This might have to do with the fact so much is done with just one individual (you rock, Rowan!), or perhaps its expressive lyrics. Either way, its absolutely legendary and ya'll should definitely give it a listen."

"It's band from my hometown, Cherepovets, Vologda Region. I remember how much and pleasantly I was surprised when I discovered them in 2015, I saw them live at least 10 times. Their music sounds like Tragedy suddenly made a collab with Marschak, such a mix of new school crust punk and screamo. Guys ironically describe their style like 'true emo black metal.'"

"A hidden gem from russian metalcore scene, legendary band from melodic metalcore/deathcore underground. In general, I adore 2000's metalcore because it has incredible organically and beautiful contrast between soft emo-like riffs and clean vocals, and brutal kickass breakdowns, diss riffs, high screams and pig squeals. This band does it perfectly. In this case, they reminded me Curse at 27 and early The Devil Wears Prada."

"One of my most favorite metalcore bands and their first album. They went a long way from 1997, when they started as Converge-like oldschool metalcore band, to a moden metalcore flagman in 2000's. When I showed this album to one my friend, he said it sounds like blackened thrash metal. Personally I confide it pretty similar to screamo and emoviolence. Raw guitars, maximally hysterical screams, DIY mastering in general. Here everything is perfect."
